Methodology
We assess condition only from documented evidence — inspection reports, seller disclosures, permit history and recorded professional observations. Each finding is classified by urgency and priced against replacement cost and remaining useful life. Anything undocumented is recorded as a gap, never inferred from photographs or age alone.
Inspection reports
Uploaded and read into the brief, finding by finding.
Seller disclosures
Known defects, past repairs and material history.
Permit and tax records
Evidence of work performed, and of work performed without a permit.
Professional observation
Documented in-person notes, attributed and dated.
01
Read the evidence
Extract every finding from the documents provided, with its source.
02
Classify urgency
Immediate safety, near-term replacement, deferred maintenance, or cosmetic.
03
Price by remaining life
Estimate cost against replacement cost and the remaining useful life of the system.
04
Separate known from unknown
Anything not documented is listed as a gap with the specific document that would close it.
05
Route the gap
Where a gap matters to the decision, we request the document or escalate it to the listing agent.
No. We read professional inspection reports, disclosures and permit records into the brief, and document in-person observations separately and attributably. A Property Intelligence brief is not a substitute for a licensed inspection.
Condition is recorded as a gap. The brief names the exact document that would close it and lowers the confidence on any recommendation that depends on it.
Property Intelligence™ runs this method against verified records, the documents you upload and professional review — then states a recommendation, its confidence, and exactly what is still missing.
