Turn failed inspections into fast approvals — and Realtor referrals into real revenue — with quotes built on verified measurement data and contract-ready outputs.

Roof Problems Don’t Have to Kill a Deal

For Realtors, few things are more stressful than a roof that fails inspection. A cracked tile or aging shingle system can delay closings, derail financing, or force painful price renegotiations.

For smart roofing contractors, that’s an opportunity in disguise. With RoofScope® aerial measurements and SmartQuote™, you can help agents turn last-minute issues into win-win resolutions: fast, firm quotes backed by real measurement data and ready-to-sign contracts before the deal goes cold.

The Realtor’s Dilemma: Fast Answers, Firm Numbers

When a roof fails inspection, agents need immediate clarity:

  • How bad is it?
  • What will it cost?
  • Can the seller fix it, or should we negotiate?

Most roofers take days to deliver an estimate — or provide ballpark numbers that fall apart once work begins. That uncertainty costs deals, credibility, and client trust.

Enter SmartQuote™ — a Reliable Fix

  • Accurate — Derived from verified aerial and blueprint measurements.
  • Fast — Reports in hours, not days.
  • Firm — Quotes built from real data, not “eyeballed” numbers.
  • Actionable — Instantly converts into a digital contract ready to sign.

Agents get instant answers during inspection or negotiation. Contractors become the hero who saves the deal.
