Rough field notes turned into a clean, objective comment for the report.
Write a clear, objective home-inspection report comment. Start by asking me to paste my field note: what I observed, where in the house I observed it, and the condition it was in. Wait for my answer before writing anything. Then, using ONLY the note I gave you: Structure: 1. What was observed and where. 2. The condition, in factual terms. 3. A recommended next step (evaluation or repair by a qualified specialist where that fits). Rules: - Describe only what I observed. Do not invent defects, causes, or measurements. - Objective and factual, no alarm and no downplaying. - Do not cite a specific building code or call it a code violation. - Plain English an agent and a buyer can both read.
A calm, plain-English explanation that informs without scaring.
Explain an inspection finding to a nervous buyer in plain english. Start by asking me what I observed, and where in the house. Wait for my answer before explaining anything. Then: Structure: 1. What it is. 2. Why it matters. 3. The sensible next step, often having a licensed specialist evaluate it. Rules: - Six to eight sentences total, no jargon, calm and factual. - Do not state it is a code violation, and do not guess at repair costs.
A short, honest intro that agents and buyers trust.
Write a short marketing intro for my home-inspection business. Start by asking me three things: the area I cover, my experience, and what makes my reports useful. Wait for all three before writing anything. Then, using ONLY the details I gave you: Structure: 1. A warm one-line hook. 2. What you do and who you help. 3. What makes your reports useful, and a light invitation to book. Rules: - Warm and clear, under 150 words. - Do not invent certifications, stats, review counts, or claims I did not give you.
A clear reply to post-inspection questions, grounded in your report.
Draft a reply to a client's questions after their inspection. Start by asking me to paste two things: their questions, and the comments from my report that cover them. Wait for both before drafting. Then, using ONLY what is in my report: Structure: 1. A warm opener. 2. A clear answer to each question, grounded only in the report. 3. For anything outside a general home inspection, a recommendation to bring in the right licensed specialist. Rules: - Do not add new findings or guess. - Stay objective. Warm and clear.

Do not let AI cite building codes or call something a code violation. A home inspection reports condition, not code compliance. Recommend evaluation by the right licensed specialist instead.
AI does not know your standards of practice, your state licensing rules, or your report's disclaimers. Keep your scope, limitations, and liability language exactly as your agreements require.
No alarm, no downplaying. Let AI tidy the wording, not shift the meaning. The finding is what you observed, described plainly.
Keep client details and full reports in your inspection software, not pasted into public AI tools.
