Reggora, a company specializing in appraisal technology for mortgage lenders, has launched HomeInspector.com, a free software platform designed for home inspectors. The platform, available on the web and as mobile apps for iOS and Android, aims to streamline the entire inspection workflow. It provides features such as customizable report writing, mobile tools for capturing findings and photos on-site, and web access for office tasks. Inspectors can deliver interactive reports to clients and agents, complete with organized findings and photos, client and agent portals, and repair request tools. The service also includes online booking and scheduling through branded pages, digital agreements for electronic signature, and automated communication to keep all parties informed. Integrated payment collection is available, with an option to automatically release reports upon payment completion. Additionally, a custom website builder allows inspectors to create a branded online presence showcasing their services and pricing, with integrated online booking. Reggora is offering HomeInspector.com at no cost, a move that connects them with inspectors who may also be interested in separate, paid property-data assignments, though accepting these assignments is optional and inspection reports are not shared with lenders. The development of HomeInspector.com involved collaboration with working home inspectors who tested the platform and provided feedback. Brian Zitin, CEO of Reggora, stated that the company's position in the mortgage transaction process makes offering the software for free possible. Greg Montemurro, General Manager of HomeInspector.com, emphasized that inspectors should not have to change their routines for better software deals. Chris Tangora of Tangora Home Inspections praised the platform's report appearance, support, and the absence of a monthly software bill.
