Inspection options
No single inspection model fits every loan.Here, you don’t have to choose.
A tract home, a remote cabin, a multifamily project, a custom home, a fix-and-flip: each calls for a different kind of inspection at a different cost. Mix on-site, remote, and self-inspections across your portfolio, or by draw, and curate the roster of inspectors and partners you trust.
| Project | On-site | Remote | Self |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tract home | No | No | Yes |
| Remote cabin | No | Yes | No |
| Multifamily | Yes | No | No |
| Custom home | Yes | No | No |
| Fix-and-flip | No | No | Yes |
The five options
Match the inspection to the project.
On-site inspections
A national network of pre-qualified, vetted third-party inspectors. Land Gorilla’s inspection services team reviews each report for completeness and supporting evidence before it reaches your loan file. Integrated scheduling, and one monthly statement instead of per-inspection billing.
Remote inspections
Remote technicians guide inspections with borrowers or contractors over video, capturing real-time photo and video evidence. Recorded, stored in the platform, and suited to hard-to-reach properties.
OneSite self inspections
Borrowers and builders photograph progress with their smartphone, in the OneSite app, with tamper-detection and location-verification technology that flags photos that may not be authentic or taken at the property. Added to the draw request workflow, borrowers and builders can complete them right away, without waiting on inspector availability, and they can reduce third-party inspection fees.
Or run your own.
Lender-managed inspectors
Keep your trusted in-house or preferred inspectors and give them the platform's web and mobile tools: automated orders, status updates, document exchange, messaging, and synced inspection data.
Partner marketplace
Work with the appraisal, title, and inspection companies you already trust. Invite them in, place orders, exchange messages, get reports delivered into the platform, and monitor service levels.

Questions lenders ask
What is a construction draw inspection?
An inspection that documents work in place so the lender can decide on a construction draw. Land Gorilla offers five ways to perform one: an on-site national network, remote inspections over video, OneSite self-inspections, your own inspectors, or your preferred partners, all in one platform.
How fast can a construction draw inspection be scheduled?
Inspections can order automatically with the draw, so scheduling starts as soon as the draw is submitted. Remote and self-inspections can begin right away.
Can borrowers and builders perform their own draw inspections?
Yes, through OneSite self-inspections. Photos are captured in the secure OneSite app, checked for authenticity and location, and reviewed by your team, who decide on the draw based on the evidence. They can reduce third-party inspection fees.
Can we keep using our own inspectors?
Yes. Lender-managed inspectors work inside the platform with automated orders, status updates, document exchange, and messaging, and the Partner Marketplace brings the appraisal, title, and inspection companies you already trust into the same workflow.
