Keep records consistent over time

Compare inspections. Then review the details.

Choose two saved records for the same property to see matching room and item entries, notes, and available photos. A difference is a reason to look closer—not proof of cause or responsibility.

A few useful details

Before you start.

Know where your information lives and what an inspection record can—and cannot—tell you.

Do I need an account to create a rental inspection?

No account is required. Your inspection records stay in the current browser and are not synced to an Inspecterfly account. Open the inspection workspace.

Where are inspection notes and photos stored?

They are saved in this browser's local storage. Browser data can be removed or lost, so export a JSON backup and keep important records somewhere you control. Read the privacy policy.

Can I use a checklist as a legal standard?

No. Checklists are general documentation prompts. Access, notice, safety, and reporting requirements depend on the rules that apply in your location. See the inspection planning guide.

Does a comparison determine why a condition changed?

No. It displays the information in two saved records. Review the original notes and photos; a difference does not establish cause or responsibility. Learn about comparing inspections.
