Everything NSPIRE Photo-Check does, in the order your team will actually use it — the checklist, the walkthrough, the score, the report, the live view, and the plans. Read it top to bottom and you'll know exactly what you're buying before the trial starts.
Every inspection starts from the same federal core of 189 checkpoints, each one mapped to the HUD NSPIRE standards. New Jersey properties add the state's N.J.A.C. 5:10 checks — 194 checkpoints in total. The list runs in all 50 states; the NJ layer switches on only where it belongs. Nothing is a generic “looks fine” box: each check names a specific item and a specific condition, because that's what the official inspector will be checking.
The full inside of the unit: detectors and life safety, entry and egress, living areas, kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, windows, electrical and lighting, heat, hot water and plumbing, and interior condition — including the items inspectors catch most, like a double-keyed deadbolt, a painted sprinkler head, or insulated glass gone foggy from a failed seal.
Exterior and grounds, entrances, halls and stairs, common rooms and laundry, elevators, mechanical and electrical rooms, fire safety systems, roof and structure — the areas an inspector walks before and after the units. Kept fully separate from the unit round, with its own score and report.
Why it matters: your team isn't guessing what HUD looks at. The list is what HUD looks at, translated into a walk your own people can run.
The app is organized the way your company already is. The Property Manager sets up the account; nobody has to share a password or see buildings that aren't theirs.
Why it matters: a portfolio tool only works if each building's team sees their building and nothing else — and if the manager can add a new tech in a minute, not a ticket.
Open a unit, and the round begins. One check at a time, big buttons, no typing unless you want to.
Why it matters: a walkthrough tool gets used at arm's length, one-handed, in bad light. Everything about this screen is built for that moment.
Most fails in a make-ready get fixed the same day, by the same crew. The app treats that as the normal flow, not an afterthought.
Why it matters: the second visit is where inspection prep usually falls apart. Carrying the open fails forward means nothing gets fixed-and-forgotten or failed-and-lost.
Every round produces two scores, both computed live from the actual checks — never typed in, never carried over from an old round. The math is HUD's own: every fail deducts points by severity and by location — unit, inside, or outside — with the same per-area caps HUD applies. The result is a projected estimate of your NSPIRE score: the official one also depends on which units the inspector happens to sample, but every fail is priced here exactly the way the inspector will price it.
| Severity | Unit | Inside | Outside | Correction window |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Life-Threatening | −5.5 | −5.0 | −4.6 | Within 24 hours |
| Severe | −3.5 | −3.2 | −2.9 | 24 hours to 30 days |
| Moderate | −1.8 | −1.6 | −1.5 | Within 30 days |
| Low | −0.8 | −0.7 | −0.6 | Within 60 days |
Why it matters: a score a manager can't explain is a score they'll ignore. Here, every number opens into the exact fails that produced it.
The report is the product your regional office actually sees, so it's built to be read in thirty seconds and audited in five minutes.
Why it matters: nobody above you will open an app to understand a unit. They'll open this file. It reads the way a manager thinks: score, problems, what's left, proof.
Units don't care about quitting time, and phones die in basements. The round is built to survive both.
Why it matters: the first time a tool loses a crew's afternoon of work, the crew stops using the tool. This one can't lose it.
When a round is in progress, nobody senior has to wonder, call, or drive over.
Why it matters: a regional can follow five supers across five buildings in the time one site visit used to take — and catch a bad round while there's still time to fix it.
End of the round, a handful of red items scattered across the whole unit list. Nobody should have to scroll to find them.
Why it matters: the difference between a punch list that gets finished and one that gets forgotten is friction. This removes it.
Two plans. One flat price per property. The whole team at that property is included in either — there are no per-seat fees, and there never will be.

Everything in Base, plus a second set of eyes on every photo.
NSPIRE Photo-Check is a readiness tool built on the same standards HUD, REAC and NSPIRE inspectors use — your own team finds and fixes the deficiencies first, with a checklist mapped to the HUD NSPIRE standards (the New Jersey N.J.A.C. 5:10 layer applies to NJ properties), scoring that mirrors HUD's own point model, and photo proof on every item (AI photo-checking on Plus).
It was built by All Building Services LLC, an apartment renovation and maintenance contractor in business since 1985 — by people whose crews get graded on these inspections for a living, and who have stood in more of your units than any software company ever will. Every convenience in this tour exists because a foreman asked for it in the field, usually by name.
Be ready for it — property by property, photo by photo.
