Service guide
What good property documentation should capture
Useful property documentation is specific, current, and tied to the assignment. Images should be clear enough to show the requested condition, location, access point, improvement, or change without relying on generic stock photography or ambiguous captions.
What you receive
Deliverables are matched to the service: written findings, photographs, verification notes, progress documentation, or other agreed outputs. Current listed pricing for this service starts at $250, subject to property, territory, access, and scope.
When another professional may be needed
If the assignment reveals a condition that requires engineering, trade diagnosis, laboratory testing, code interpretation, legal analysis, appraisal, or insurance adjustment, the appropriate specialist should perform that work.
