CLS maintains a nationwide network of inspectors which act as the eyes and ears of every project we manage, verifying all work is completed per the plans, specifications and budget prior to the release of funds. CLS evaluates each inspector to confirm they have adequate construction inspection experience.

When a draw request is received by CLS, a comprehensive inspection report request is sent to the inspector to confirm the work completed. The inspector completes the report and indicates the percentage of completion per line item or stage and includes photographs. The system is integrated with our portfolio management system to allow our lenders and inspectors to view or submit reports, photographs and documentation online. Our inspectors perform on-site inspections to support each draw request to ensure that the contractor is not getting ahead of the lender.

CLS’s success is dependent upon the timeliness, quality and professionalism of our inspectors. Therefore CLS approved inspectors must commit to a 24-48 hour turn-around time for every inspection. Inspectors…want to join our network?
