Mobile 4-Point Inspection Forms: A Better Solution
It is fairly common for insurance companies to request that homeowners provide a completed 4-point inspection before they agree to provide coverage. Some states, like Florida, actually require it. This inspection helps the insurer understand the true liability they will take on if they choose to provide coverage. With a large number of these inspections being completed every single year, certified home inspectors need a better solution to assist in the inspection process and ensure efficiency and accuracy in their work.
What's the problem?
The current model is not the most effective option. Pen and paper inspection forms leave a lot of room for errors. The inspector has to fill out the paper form, take photos on a capable device, sign the final form, go back to the office, upload the photos, scan in the signed and completed form, organize all the final inspection data, compile it all into one multi-page pdf, and then deliver the copy back to the homeowner to be turned in to the insurance company. That is a lot of moving parts with room for failure.
Paper forms could be lost or damaged, parts of the inspection could be forgotten, photo files might become corrupted, emails could fail to be delivered, or any other number of problems could arise that lead to a need for a follow-up inspection. The last thing any inspector wants to do is take time out of their busy schedule to return to a property and complete the inspection again.
What if every one of those problems could be solved with a single solution?
Mobile Forms.
Imagine completing an entire inspection on your mobile device. Just fill out the form with a tablet or cell phone, hit submit, and then move on to the next inspection knowing the job was done efficiently and accurately the first time. No need to worry about files being lost, sending emails, or skipping important inspection steps. Mobile forms make inspections faster, easier, and more accurate.
