How do I Access My Inspection Report?

Accessing Your Report as Real Estate Professional

Username and Password

When your inspector has uploaded an agreement, invoice, or report for you to access, you will receive an e-mail containing your Username and Password. If you did not receive an e-mail and believe you should have, please also check your spam and other filtered folders.

Your unique Username and Password will be contained in the body of the e-mail. To log in, follow the link in the e-mail, then type your Username and Password into the Sign in fields. Important: Passwords are case-sensitive, so be sure to turn caps-lock off and type the characters exactly as shown in the e-mail.

Please note that you can also copy and paste the username and password, but if you do so be sure to highlight the text carefully when copying as a single empty space before or after the username or password will cause the login process to fail.

Click Sign in when done.

If you cannot log in, and are sure you've entered the username and password exactly as shown with no extra spaces before or after, click Email My My Password to get a new login e-mail in the event that your username or password has changed.

Viewing Your Report Documents
