Why use a Home Inspection App?
A home inspection software is a digital tool used by professional home inspectors to assess the physical condition of a property or building. Home inspections are typically performed to provide a formal report of the property’s condition to prospective buyers.
Traditionally, the home inspector’s findings and observations are recorded manually on paper. This makes data susceptible to damage and loss, in addition to the storage and organization issues it presents.
A good home inspection software such as the iAuditor mobile app can solve this problem in 3 simple steps.
How to Do Home Inspections Using iAuditor
Step 1. Convert your paper form into a digital form or create a new template
iAuditor’s template builder can easily convert your existing paper form to a digital template that you can use in the app. All you need to do is take a clear picture of your paper checklist, upload it to the app, and wait for a few seconds until the conversion is complete.
Step 2. Perform your home inspection, minus the paper forms
Using your new digital template, perform your home inspection with the iAuditor mobile app. Record your findings and observations using your android phone, iPhone, tablet, or Windows phone. You can complete your inspection even while offline. The data from the inspection will automatically sync to the cloud for storage and easy access the next time you connect to the internet:
- Take and annotate photo evidence for documentation and review
- Unlimited cloud-based storage for all photos and reports
- Include detailed notes and recommendations for repair
- Assign actions to relevant personnel
Step 3. Generate a Report
After completing your home inspection, you can immediately generate a digital report in a variety of formats such as PDF, Word, and CSV. You can choose to automatically share reports with selected personnel from your organization. You can also create a web link to share with your client so they can review your completed report.
Failed items from inspections are compiled and highlighted in the first part of the report for easier recognition. This also makes it easier to triage issues discovered during the inspection.
