For home buyers
Just got your inspection report? Let’s make sense of it before you panic — or overpay.
Upload your report, pay $99, and a licensed GC sends back a clear Red Flag Summary in 2 business days — what’s urgent, what’s cosmetic, real repair costs, and exactly what to negotiate before you close.
The moment
A 40-page report, a tight closing window, and a lot of scary-sounding language.
Inspectors are trained to flag everything. That’s the job. But a long report doesn’t mean a bad house — and a short repair list doesn’t mean a safe one. What you need is someone who builds homes for a living to tell you which items are real, which are routine, and what the actual fix costs in today’s market.
Urgent vs. cosmetic
A cracked drain line is not the same as chipped paint. We separate structural, safety, and mechanical from the nice-to-haves so you know where to focus.
Real repair costs
Not Google guesses. Ranges based on decades of running crews and writing bids — so you know what’s reasonable and what’s inflated.
Negotiation leverage
A prioritized list of what to ask the seller to repair, credit, or lower the price on — with reasoning you can hand to your agent.
What you get
Your Red Flag Summary, delivered in 48 hours.
Upload your inspection report. A licensed GC with decades of field experience reviews every page. You get a clear, written summary back — not a machine-generated list.
Top concerns, ranked
The three to five items that actually matter, explained in simplified terms — why they matter, and what could happen if they’re ignored.
Realistic repair ranges
A dollar range for each major item so you know whether a contractor quote is in the ballpark or padded.
What’s normal for the age
Many flags on older homes are just the age showing. We tell you which are expected and which are outliers.
Pre-close action list
A short list of what to negotiate, what to get in writing, and what to follow up on after closing.
One round of follow-ups
Questions after you read it? Send them by email. We answer within one business day.
Human, not AI
Every review is done by a real builder. No templates, no large-language-model summaries, no copy-paste. Your house deserves better than that.
Why it matters
AI can summarize your report. It can’t walk a jobsite.
AI tools can pull keywords and generate a tidy bullet list. What they can’t do is look at a photo of a cracked beam and know whether it’s a settling issue or a $30,000 structural problem. They can’t tell you that the 30-year roof the report flagged has eight good years left. They haven’t stood in a crawlspace, priced a rewire, or negotiated with a seller’s agent.
We have. For decades. That’s the difference.
Pricing
Two ways to get a review.
Most buyers go with the flat-fee Inspection Report Review. If the report has a lot to unpack — or you want to walk through it live — move up to the Visual Review & Consult.

FAQ
Common questions.
Do you replace my inspector?
No. A good inspector is essential. We work after the inspection to translate the report, price the real repairs, and help you make a smart decision on closing.
I’m closing this week. Is 48 hours fast enough?
Yes for most cases. If you need it faster, mention it in the intake form and we’ll tell you same day whether we can hit your window.
Can you help after I close too?
Yes. Many buyers move into our monthly Real-time Oversite tier to oversee the repairs or renovation work after closing.
What if the report is fine?
Then we tell you that. A clean second opinion is worth $99 on its own.
