Your Home Inspection Report

After Liberty Inspections has completed your home inspection, your Liberty Inspections inspector will conduct an onsite walk through of their findings with you. This allows you to see first-hand what was learned during the home inspection. Your report will be delivered electronically to you the same day as home inspection, typically within an hour.

Not to worry though if you are unavailable for the walk through, every home inspection done by Liberty Inspections comes with a comprehensive home inspection report detailing our findings in full. Your Liberty Inspections inspector will include comments, pictures, and videos so that your report is easily understood in the absence of an in-person walk through.

You have two option for viewing your home inspection report:

1. You can view your home inspection report using our interactive web based report system
2. You will then have the option to view and/or download the PDF version
