The pre-sale inspection is won or lost on report day. Here is the on-site flow that gets most InspectDeck users to a deliverable report before they leave the driveway.
Start from the residential pre-sale template: every section, room and space is already structured, and anything can be renamed, added or removed inside the job when the house surprises you. Templates never box you in — they just mean you never build a report skeleton twice.
Work the house in order — exterior and site, roof, structure, systems, interiors — adding findings per space as you go. The ~1,190 starter comments across 19 categories carry location, component and trade placeholders, so inserting one drops in a complete, editable narrative with priority and recommendation instead of a blank box. Edit every insert for the house in front of you: the library is a drafting aid, not a substitute for your judgment, your agreement, or your state SOP.
Import from camera roll or SD as you go — each photo saves as original, 1800px report copy and 420px thumbnail, and the interface only loads thumbnails, so a 300-photo job never bogs down on site. Markup opens on top of the finding you are writing, and closing it returns you to the same draft with a “marked up” badge. Nothing you type is ever lost to an annotation detour.
Back at the truck: set the cover photo and company branding once, preview the report in-app, then export the full inspection PDF — or the repair and safety summary for the agent and the full version for the client. Offline-first means the basement with no signal costs you zero waiting. That is the whole speed advantage over tab-hopping web tools: structure up front, words assisted, photos instant, PDF on-site.
