FetchReport Friendly, the seal that unified report delivery throughout the inspection industry.
As the inspection industry moves toward doing more work for home sellers and
as inspectors are seeking more ways to add value to their services without additional
cost, a robust and unified upload and download system with multiple benefits has
now been universally adopted. FetchReport.com has already procured agreements
from nearly
every inspection software company, report form vendor, and testing laboratory to become
FetchReport Friendly over the next several months.
