How CertiHome Assessment Works

Upload photos of a home, let our AI analyze what it sees, and receive a photo-based report with observations, possible issues, and an action list you can act on.

1

Take or upload photos

Capture clear photos of the areas you care about — exterior, basement, bathrooms, kitchens, mechanical systems, and any spots that already concern you.

2

Submit a report request

In the CertiHome Assessment app, choose the photos you want included and submit your request. You only pay based on how many photos are in the report — no subscriptions or monthly fees.

3

AI reviews your photos

CertiHome Assessment analyzes the visible details in each image and generates a structured report with observations, possible issues, repair suggestions, and an action list with suggested timelines.

4

Read, share, and ask questions

Review the report inside the app, then share it as a PDF with your realtor, family, or trusted contractor so you can ask better questions before a full inspection.

5

Learn from the blog

Use CertiHome Assessment’s free, blog-style Learning Center to understand early signs of structural, moisture, or mechanical issues and what to look for in future home photos.

What CertiHome Assessment looks for

CertiHome Assessment focuses on visible clues in your photos — things a careful person might notice, but summarized and structured for you.

  • Staining or discoloration that may indicate moisture or leaks
  • Peeling paint or sealant on concrete floors that could signal foundation moisture
  • Rust, corrosion, or damage around mechanical and plumbing components
  • Visible cracks, gaps, or missing materials on the exterior
  • General condition notes and maintenance suggestions

Important note

CertiHome Assessment is not a licensed home inspection or engineering service and cannot see inside walls, floors, or hidden spaces. All reports are based only on the photos you provide. You should always hire a licensed home inspector or qualified contractor before making final purchase decisions or major repairs.

CertiHome Assessment is best used as an early screening tool — helping you decide which homes to prioritize and what questions to ask during a professional inspection.

FAQ

Is CertiHome Assessment a home inspection?

No. CertiHome Assessment is a photo-based insight tool. It reviews what can be seen in your pictures and highlights possible concerns and maintenance items. It does not replace a licensed home inspector, appraiser, engineer, or contractor.

When should I use CertiHome Assessment?

CertiHome Assessment is ideal before you schedule a full inspection. Use it when you’re browsing listings, considering making an offer, or comparing multiple homes so you can spot issues early and focus on the right questions.

How is pricing handled?

There are no subscriptions. You pay only when you request a report, and the price depends on how many photos you include. Most users pay around $15 per report. You’ll see the cost before you confirm your request.
