§ 2.0 · What Happens Next Request to delivery, 5 steps

Your request. Five steps.

D+0Acknowledgment within one business day

You submit the intake; we send an email acknowledgment within one business day. If we have clarifying questions (case number not provided, ambiguous address, special access conditions), we ask in the acknowledgment so we can move directly to quoting.

D+0Written quote same business day

An exact figure for your address and product, with any travel and rush surcharges itemized. No surprise charges at delivery. If you have any add-ons (LOPV sourcing, IBTS sourcing, reaffirmation review), they're priced separately and itemized.

D+1Field-visit window confirmed

Within 24 hours of order confirmation, we send the scheduled field-visit window. Scheduling depends on location and availability; any rush commitment is confirmed in your quote. Most metro-STL visits are scheduled inside 24 hours; out-of-state visits batch with the next regional leg.

D+1-2Field visit

60- to 90-minute on-site inspection. Skirting opened, piers measured, anchors documented, data plate transcribed, cert labels verified. The homeowner doesn't need to be present once skirting access is arranged; most jobs run with just a lockbox or seller's agent present.

D+1-2Sealed PDF delivered

To the email you specified on intake, with copies routed to the recipient (lender, underwriter, borrower) if you've authorized direct delivery. Ready to drop into the loan file.
