1 Plan ahead

Before you arrive at the property, make sure you have all the tools and equipment you need, such as a flashlight, ladder, camera, moisture meter, and inspection software. Review the property details and any special requests from the client or agent. Prepare a checklist of items to inspect and prioritize the most critical ones. Having a clear plan will help you avoid wasting time and missing important issues.

2 Follow a consistent system

When you are on site, follow a consistent system for inspecting each area of the property. Start from the exterior and work your way inside, or vice versa. Use the same order and method for each room and component. For example, you can inspect the walls, windows, doors, floors, ceilings, outlets, and fixtures in each room. This will help you avoid overlooking or duplicating any items, and create a logical flow for your report.

3 Use technology to your advantage

Technology can be a great ally in improving your quality and efficiency. Use a digital camera or a smartphone to take photos and videos of the property and any defects you find. Use an inspection software or app to record your findings, generate reports, and send them to your clients. Use a voice recorder or a dictation tool to capture your notes and observations. Use a GPS or a navigation app to find the best route to the property. Technology can help you save time, reduce errors, and enhance your professionalism.

4 Communicate clearly and promptly

Communication is key to building trust and rapport with your clients and agents. Communicate clearly and promptly throughout the inspection process, from scheduling to delivery. Confirm the date, time, and location of the inspection. Explain the scope and limitations of your service. Answer any questions or concerns they may have. Provide a summary of your findings and recommendations at the end of the inspection. Send the report as soon as possible, preferably within 24 hours. Follow up with a thank you note and a request for feedback.

I am real estate appraiser not a home inspector. But I agree. Clear communication can't be over-emphasized enough. The end user needs to understand our conclusion if he or she is going to make a good a decision. Clear communication helps to makes this possible.
