From a messy inspection report to a lender-ready scope.
Most investors spend 3–5 hours manually reviewing inspection reports and calling contractors for rough quotes. Scopebase compresses that process to about a minute for most runs, without sacrificing the line-item detail your lender and contractor need to move forward.
Scout Plan — Free
1 deal brief / month, no credit card
Line-item repair ranges
LOW / MID / HIGH pricing by trade, with grouping that is readable by investors and contractors.
Major-systems triage
Roof, foundation, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical are elevated so risk is visible before you scroll a huge table.
Underwriting support
Repair cost, contingency, buying costs, hold costs, selling costs, financing drag, and target profit are combined into a cleaner offer view.
Validation guidance
The report explains which assumptions still need real-world confirmation before money gets committed.
The Four Steps
Four steps. One purpose: a defensible scope before you commit anything.
Drop in your inspection PDF. Or just describe the property.
No formatting required. No template to fill out. Paste in your MLS description, a few bullet points, or upload a 60-page PDF inspection report. Scopebase handles both. The extraction pipeline processes standard home inspection formats, contractor reports, and free-form property notes.
Supported: PDF upload, plain-text description, property address + notes. Max 50MB for PDF.
Every deficiency gets extracted, categorized, and priced.
Scopebase runs a staged repair-risk underwriting pipeline: evidence extraction, local pricing, cost estimation, adversarial review, MAO analysis, and report generation.
Processing time depends on report size and selected analysis depth. Houston-first pricing with Texas expansion support.
Review the full line-item breakdown with LOW/MID/HIGH ranges.

What to Expect — and Where to Verify
Scopebase is purpose-built for pre-offer due diligence. Not for everything else.
The strongest use is speed plus structure: go from inspection report to a defensible scope in about a minute for most runs, narrow your uncertainty, and decide whether to walk, renegotiate, or order deeper diligence — before you've spent any money on contractor walks.
Always verify
- Pre-offer screening only: Estimates are ±20–30% in most cases. They're calibrated for the go/no-go decision, not final budgeting or permit-ready scope of work.
- No on-site inspection: We work from what you tell us. Hidden conditions (mold behind drywall, foundation movement, buried utilities) are outside our data.
- Regional data has gaps: Metro coverage is strong for high-volume markets. Smaller rural markets have wider pricing bands and higher variance. The trust score will tell you.
- This is pre-inspection due diligence, not a substitute for a licensed appraisal, engineering report, or contractor quote. Always verify before committing capital.
