Before an inspection can be reported, both the inspector and a representative of the property sign on the tablet or laptop. The signatures appear on the PDF that goes to the owner.

Step by step

  1. Open the inspection.
  2. Scroll to the Signatures section.
  3. Click Inspector Signature. A signing pad opens. Sign with a finger or a stylus, then click Save.
  4. Hand the tablet to the property representative. Click Representative Signature.
  5. Type the representative's name in the Representative Name field.
  6. Have them sign on the pad, then click Save.

What gets stored

  • The inspector's signature image and the user account that signed it.
  • The representative's signature image and the typed name.
  • A timestamp when both signatures are complete.

What to know

  • You can clear either signature and re-sign without clearing the whole inspection. Useful when the wrong person signs by mistake.
  • The signatures appear at the bottom of the inspection PDF that is generated when you send the report. See Sending the inspection report.
  • If the property representative refuses to sign, capture the name and write a note in the inspection. Many agencies handle this with an agency-specific procedure -- check with your bureau's policy.
