by Shane Henson — September 21, 2012—Yardi, the makers of property management software for the multifamily, senior housing and commercial real estate industries, recently released an enhanced version of the Yardi Inspection software tool. A mobile version, Yardi Inspection Mobile, is also available for Apple, Android and BlackBerry phones and tablets.
Yardi Inspection is a flexible tool for scheduling and managing all types of inspections at commercial, multifamily, public and affordable housing, government, military, condo, and other properties. Clients can easily create custom inspection templates to suit unique business needs, assign inspections based on user-defined criteria, and view detailed reports on inspection history and more.
Built in as part of the Yardi Voyager property management and accounting system, Yardi Inspection allows users to set up, schedule and perform inspections of assets, units and properties using fully customizable inspection templates and rating systems, the company says. The solution supports a variety of inspection types, including move-in, move-out, annual inspections, due diligence, safety checks, regulatory reviews and homeowners association violations. Users can schedule mass events such as annual inspections of all units on a property. Integration of Yardi Inspection with Yardi Maintenance enables the creation of work orders based on failed inspection items.
Yardi Inspection Mobile instantly delivers assigned inspections to an inspector’s device. Users can record observations, criteria and responsibility. They can also record pictures and voice notes, and inspector and tenant signatures are captured directly on phones or tablets. Completed results are automatically recorded in Yardi Voyager.
