What Counts as a Las Vegas REO Inspection
“REO” (real estate owned) inspections are structured field visits that supply lenders, servicers, and asset managers with photo evidence and short narratives. We perform five core formats:
Exterior-Only Property Inspection
Front elevation, address proof, door and lockset, posted notices, utility indicators, and street context.
View service →
Interior & Exterior Property Inspection
Exterior set plus interior rooms, appliances, utilities, damages, debris, and health or safety concerns.
View service →
Occupancy Verification
Discrete “verify occupancy” attempts with posted contact cards when instructed, plus timestamps and photos.
View service →
Vacant Property Condition Check
Security, hazards, and preservation indicators for vacant assets with re-checks as directed.
View service →
Loss Draft / Damage Inspection
Focused frames of storm, leak, fire, vandalism, or other damages and repairs in progress.

Standard Photo Frames and Notes
Required on most REO visits
- Wide front elevation and street context
- Address verification (wall numbers, mailbox, curb, GPS overlay when allowed)
- Door, lockset, and any posted notices
- Yard, fence, gate, driveway, and vehicles present
- Basic utility indicators (meter, panel, condensers) visible from exterior
- Obvious hazards or damages (broken windows, roof issues, pooling water)
Interior access adds
- Entry, living areas, bedrooms, baths, kitchen, garage
- Appliances and major systems (HVAC, water heater, electrical)
- Damage close-ups with scale and serials when applicable
- Debris, personal property, or safety concerns
Occupancy Verification: Discrete, Documented, Defensible
“Verification of occupancy” is a frequent REO request. We keep attempts discrete and well-documented:
- Time-stamped arrival photo of frontage and door
- Contact attempt per instructions (no confrontational behavior)
- Leave-behind notice or door tag when directed
- Short notes indicating any visual occupancy indicators (active utilities, deliveries, curtains, vehicles)
- Follow-up re-visit windows when requested
Turnaround, Batching, and Delivery Format
We route exteriors to hit same-day delivery when scheduled before noon. Access visits typically deliver next business day. Batch routing reduces per-address cost on portfolios.
- Exterior-only: often same day in core coverage
- Interior + Exterior: next business day after access
- Vacant checks & re-checks: set cadence (weekly/biweekly/monthly) as directed
- Loss draft / damage: target same day for urgent evidence
Deliverables include time-stamped images in organized folders and a concise summary. CSV summaries are available on request.

When to Choose Each Inspection Type
Exterior-Only
Portfolio sweeps, early-stage REO, occupancy snapshot, low-friction documentation.
Interior & Exterior
Access available, damages suspected, or a full room-by-room record is needed.
Occupancy Verification
Decision point on marketing, preservation, or legal notices; discrete attempts with proof.
Vacant Check
Recurring security and hazard review for assets in for sale or hold status.
Loss Draft / Damage
Insurance progress, draw releases, or lender evidence on a specific incident.
