Documented. Defensible. Done.
Independent property inspections for residential property management companies in the Greater Richmond, VA metro — reports delivered within 24 hours.
Let's talkThere are only so many hours in a property manager's day. Here's what handing off inspections gets you:
PM companies run lean. Every hour spent walking units is an hour away from owners, leasing, and maintenance calls. Outsourcing puts it back.
Per-inspection pricing costs less than the payroll, taxes, and mileage behind doing it in-house. You pay only when you need an inspection.
Property managers aren't inspectors by trade. A dedicated inspector, focused on the details, produces a better record.
Move-outs cluster at month-end. Outsourced inspections scale with your volume without adding headcount.
Same inspector, same process, same report format on every unit — not whoever had time that day.
Independent reports show owners their property is getting professional attention — a concrete edge when pitching new management contracts.
Room-by-room baseline with photo documentation before the tenant takes possession. The record every later conversation refers back to.
Documents property condition at move-out against the move-in baseline — a defensible basis for deposit decisions.
Mid-tenancy condition check. Flags deferred maintenance and condition issues before they get expensive.
A condition record from day one of your management — protection against inheriting disputes over pre-existing issues.
Book it when the tenant gives notice — on the calendar weeks before the unit is empty, inspected the day after move-out.
Schedule it once your turn work is complete, typically 2–3 days before the new tenant arrives — enough room to handle anything the inspection flags.
Send a list for the month. Inspectionist can schedule directly with your tenants and work through it — zero coordination burden on your staff.
Request it when you take over a property — a clean starting record from day one.
A dated, photographed record from an independent professional gives deposit decisions and owner conversations solid footing. That's the product — see for yourself.
View a sample reportAngelo Santos founded Inspectionist after eight years inside property management companies — leasing, assistant property manager, property manager — watching inspections lose the daily fight for staff time. He has worked the Richmond market since 2019 and has performed well over 1,000 inspections since 2024, first as a dedicated in-house inspector, then independently. Every inspection is performed by Angelo — one inspector, one standard, no handoffs. Inspectionist LLC is insured.
Whatever fits your workflow — lockbox codes, key pickup, or meeting your staff on site.
Yes. Routine inspections can be scheduled directly with your tenants, or handled on your schedule — whichever you prefer.
Every report is delivered as both a web link and a PDF, with full photo documentation, within 24 hours of the inspection.
Reports document condition only. Every client's lease is different — reports state what was observed and leave lease interpretation to you. Anything unsafe or hazardous gets flagged immediately.
Set up per client to match your accounting process — per-inspection invoicing or consolidated billing on a schedule that works for you.
