KNOW YOUR
HOME BEFORE
YOU BUY IT.

Not exactly — but the $299 Tier 3 walk-through and liability transfer gets very close. The original inspector walks through the property with you, answers your questions, and formally transfers their professional liability to you. For most buyers, this provides the same practical protection as commissioning your own inspection, at a fraction of the cost.

The $99 Tier 1 purchase delivers a time-limited view link (7 days, view only — no PDF download) watermarked with the buyer's name and email. Sharing it means sharing a document with your name on it. The $199 Tier 2 PDF is also watermarked. More importantly, sharing the document doesn't transfer liability — only the paid Tier 2 and Tier 3 purchases include the formal liability transfer document.

The HomeFax listing fee is $75 on top of your inspection cost. Think of it as a marketing investment — not an added expense. A HomeFax listing gives your home a verified credibility badge, a QR code for your sign, and access to a platform that attracts informed buyers. Plus, every buyer who purchases report access helps offset that $75. You also get free permanent access to your own report.

Reports are publicly available for 120 days from the upload date. If your home sells before 120 days, the report is automatically archived when the sale is recorded. Sellers always retain free permanent access to their own report regardless of the public expiry. The 120-day window is designed to cover most active listing periods while keeping the database current.

Any CAHPi-certified, licensed home inspector in Manitoba can register and upload to HomeFax. Registration is free. Inspectors must agree to HomeFax's terms of service, including the liability transfer framework, before uploading their first report. We verify credentials at signup.

Yes — inspectors simply export their completed report as a PDF from Horizon (or any other inspection software) and upload it directly to HomeFax. No integration or software change is required. We provide a one-page quick-start guide for Horizon users at signup.

HomeFax is launching in Manitoba first in 2025. Saskatchewan and Alberta are planned for Phase 2, followed by national expansion. Each province requires its own disclosure template and regulatory review. If you're an inspector or realtor in another province and want to be notified when we launch there, sign up for our waitlist.

The Home Integrity Score is a proprietary rating out of 1,000 generated by our proprietary system after analyzing a certified inspection report. The system considers hundreds of factors including the age of the home, structural condition, mechanical systems, safety issues, known defects, needed repairs, regional building standards, and era-specific construction methods. The result is a single number that lets buyers compare homes at a glance — like a credit score for your house. The exact formula is proprietary to HomeFax.
