HomeGauge 4HomeGauge Home Inspection Software 4.2 Update

NEW!! Support for Pest Inspection Forms and other required PDF forms
Go to the "Misc" button on the left hand menu and then select the new tab "Forms". One form is included for testing. Common forms are available for purchase, or more forms can be created. Tutorial

NEW!! Support for creating sketch drawings.
Anywhere you can insert a picture, and in pest forms that require a sketch, you can now quickly draw a layout of the home or any other kind of sketch you might need. Click where you would normally insert a picture to pop up the menu and select the "Insert Sketch" option. Tutorial

NEW!! Quickly select sub folders of line drawings or pictures
Many inspectors have added to the available HomeGauge line drawings and created their own large library. You can now categorize the images into folders and quickly move from folder to folder to find the right drawing quickly. Tutorial

NEW!! HomeGauge has a built in PDF viewer
Previous versions of HomeGauge used the Adobe Acrobat Reader, which caused many problems inside of HomeGauge. We now use our own built-in tool to display the PDFs that is also FAST.

We have a system in the works for making it a lot easier for agents, buyers, and sellers to communicate with each other in regards to the inspection report. We will have more information about this system in the near future. Apr 20, 2009 8:54 PM

WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO DEVELOPE A WAY FOR THE REALTOR TO TAB ANY ITEM ON THE SUMMARY AND HAVE IT DROP INTO THE REALTOR REPAIRMENT AGREEMENT SHEET. FOR VERY BUSY REALTORS AND ASSISTANTS THIS WILL SPEED UP THEIR DAY. INSPECT ONE, INC. WILMINGTON,N.C. 4/17/2009 Apr 17, 2009 11:16 AM
