The Inspection Edition · Sample Home Inspection Report, Michigan

We don’t just write a home inspection report. We publish your edition.

You are the star. Your potential new home is the headline. Every Pre Closing Inspection is a detailed, thorough property inspection with the sewer scope and thermal imaging included as standard, and when the inspection is done we drop your edition: a magazine-style report you can read online and in print, with the same-day delivery and repair costs Southeast Michigan buyers count on.

Every customer gets both, same day. Each one opens on its own, no password. Sample built from a real Southeast Michigan inspection; the address, buyer and agent are placeholders.

How It Works

Inspect. Write the story. Drop the edition.

01

We inspect, thoroughly

A detailed, top-to-bottom property inspection. The sewer scope and thermal imaging come standard on every full home inspection, with drone roof photography wherever the roof calls for it.

02

We write the story

Not a checklist. An editorial about your house: the cover story, the findings that matter, the roof from above, where the money goes. You are the star and your potential new home is the headline.

03

We drop your edition

Same day. Online to read and share, in print to hold, and with your agent on the cover next to you. One inspection, one edition, nothing to decode.

Two Ways To Read Your Report

One inspection. Two editions. You choose how you read it.

Most inspectors hand you one PDF. You get a digital hub you can explore and share, and a print edition you can hold, mark up and keep. Same findings, same story, built for the way you actually want to use them.

What Every Edition Includes

A thorough property inspection, with the standard inclusions that matter.

Real Findings, Real Numbers

What a thorough home inspection report actually says.

Here is the executive summary as it appears in the sample edition for 1427 Elm Street, Sample Town: an older home that is livable, with deferred maintenance a buyer needs to understand before closing. The sample is built from a real Southeast Michigan inspection; the address, buyer and agent are placeholders.

This 1948-built, 2,936 sq ft two-story home on a 0.42-acre lot in Sample Town presents a mix of cosmetic, safety, and structural concerns typical of a mid-century property, alongside several notable positive attributes The most pressing issues are a recurring pattern of ungrounded and open-ground electrical outlets throughout the home (living room, master bedroom, basement, fireplace area, and third floor), foundation cracking and mortar deterioration on the C side, and significant concrete deterioration across the driveway, patio, walkways, and garage floor slab. Overall, the property is livable but requires a meaningful near-term investment in electrical safety, concrete and structural repair, and drainage correction.

The action plan every edition ends with

A findings list alone does not help a buyer decide. Every edition closes with a prioritized action plan in plain language, ranked by what needs attention first:

This is what separates a Michigan home inspection report that lists problems from one that tells you what to do about them, in the order that protects your investment and your family’s safety first.
