Home Inspection Solution
TradeEngage's Home Inspection Solution automatically scans every HouseMaster inspection report using AI, extracting defects and categorizing them into actionable service referrals across 50+ trade categories. Seven days after the home closes, buyers receive a personalized HomeHub Concierge portal with prioritized service needs, cost estimates, and direct connections to Neighborly providers. The entire process runs automatically through HouseMaster Cloud with no workflow changes for inspectors.
Home Inspection Solution for HouseMaster
From inspection to homeowner referral — fully automated. Once you set it up, referrals to and from your local network of providers flow seamlessly.
Step 1: Inspector Completes the Inspection
Inspector completes the inspection in HouseMaster Cloud — nothing changes for their workflow.
Step 2: Report Sent to TradeEngage
HouseMaster Cloud sends the report to TradeEngage automatically via secure webhook.
Step 3: AI Analyzes the Inspection Report
TradeEngage's AI pipeline analyzes the report Summary — categorizing by trade, assigning urgency levels.
Step 4: Email Notification Sent to Homeowner
The homeowner receives an email notification asking them to provide their property closing date so their personalized HomeHub Concierge can be prepared.
Step 5: HomeHub Concierge Delivered
7 days after their closing date, the homeowner receives an email notification to activate their Home Hub Concierge — their personalized checklist of service requests.
Step 6: Inspector Earns
When a service is requested, it is sent as a lead to one of your trusted home service providers. They'll pay you for the referral and send referrals back in return. Don't want to earn referral fees? Opt out!
