Building a portfolio means looking at a lot of real estate — most of it won't fit your buy box. Bird Dog covers roof, foundation, electrical, structural, pest, and safety/health in one fast pass, so you find out what's worth pursuing before you spend on a full inspection.
Covering condition and remaining service life, assessed on the same pass.
Movement, cracking, and structural red flags that change the math on a deal fast.
Panel condition, obvious hazards, and anything that signals a bigger rewire ahead.
Visible evidence of infestation or damage that affects value and habitability.
The conditions that affect whether a property is actually livable as-is.
For occupied rentals specifically — how the unit is actually being lived in and maintained, a real risk signal a standard inspection never captures.
Most properties you look at won't fit your buy box. Ordering a full inspection on every one is slow and expensive when you're going to pass on most of them anyway. Bird Dog exists to separate "worth pursuing" from "pass" quickly and cheaply — then you reserve the full, deeper inspection for whatever actually survives that first cut.
$150 for the on-site media capture, $19.99 to convert it into the full AI-written report. Booked straight into real availability — no back and forth.
