Turn an Inspection Report Into a Repair Request

What is the first decision?

Convert a long report into a short issue list. Identify safety, water intrusion, active system failure, and specialist-recommended findings separately from maintenance or preference items.

Use the inspector's wording, location, and recommended next step. A request for everything in a report is not a decision. Example: an inoperable HVAC system and a recommendation for licensed evaluation supports obtaining a written scope before asking for repair, credit, price adjustment, or acceptance. Keep any invoice, contractor details, and final approval.

Which evidence can change the answer?

For each requested item, attach the report page, location, requested remedy, and any quote or specialist conclusion. A vague request makes it hard to compare a repair, credit, price change, or no change.

How do you make the decision before the deadline?

Check the response deadline and keep all requests within the contract process. A contractor estimate is evidence for a discussion, not a guarantee of final cost.

Before deciding about Turn an Inspection Report Into a Repair Request, what will you document?
