Obtain a Budget Pricing for Defects Found During the Inspection

CHC Home Inspection and Clear 2 Close Contracting have developed a strategic partnership that enables our real estate professional network to quickly obtain budget estimates for their clients, helping them understand the value of defects found in their home inspection report.


This service helps buyers and sellers navigate the home-buying process and reach the closing table smoothly.


  1. Real Estate Agents: Open the report at the link that was emailed to you.
  2. From the top of the report, select the drop-down menu in the top right corner titled “Report Tools”. Select the Repair Request Builder.
  3. This brings you to a list of all defects found during the home inspection. Select the 5 defects you would like budgeted; the check mark will turn green when the item is selected.
  4. Once you select the five defects, click “Create” at the top.
  5. Select to email your report and enter “estimates@chcinsp.com”. Click SEND, then DONE.
  6. You will receive an email within 72 hours once your repair budget quote is uploaded.


Can CLEAR 2 CLOSE perform these repairs as well?  Yes, Clear 2 Close has a team of customer-focused professionals who can perform almost any repair/ improvement.


Can CLEAR 2 CLOSE provide budget estimates from a report from a different company?  Yes, Clear 2 Close contracting is only partnered with our company, but that doesn’t mean they exclusively work with us


How soon will I receive my budget estimate?  Once we have received our clients' requested defect items, estimates are turned around within 72 hours. If you do not select the defect items, don’t worry, we will select the more important repairs and get the budget to you anyway.


How much does this service cost?  This service is free for budgeting on up to 5 defect items. If you would like to know the repair cost for additional items, call our customer service line to make your request and get pricing information.
