Draw Inspections in 5 Unique Places, July 2026

The market

Prescott was Arizona's first territorial capital and is still the Yavapai County seat, about 90 miles north of Phoenix and more than 5,300 feet up. The city is ringed by the granite boulders of the Granite Dells and the ponderosa pine of the Prescott National Forest, and its winters bring snow, a rarity in Arizona. Building sites follow that terrain, from granite slopes to lots at the top of winding roads into the pines.

How RAZE ran it

A Prescott draw can mean a custom home on a granite slope at the top of a winding road, in snow season too. On site, every photo the inspector captures in the RAZE Mobile App is geo-stamped with GPS coordinates and time-stamped, and lands on the draw sheet line item it supports, so the lender sees where on the slope and when each stage was documented.

The market

Albuquerque is New Mexico's largest city, founded in 1706 on a wide bend of the Rio Grande, with the Sandia Mountains on its east side and the West Mesa on its west. The West Side is the fastest-growing part of the city: subdivisions of new single-family homes keep extending west and north across the mesa, one newly graded street at a time.

How RAZE ran it

On a street that new, the address on a loan can be ahead of what a map knows. RAZE doesn't depend on the address to prove the visit: every photo the inspector captures carries its own GPS latitude and longitude and date and time stamps, linked to its draw sheet line item, so the record shows which lot was inspected and which work the draw is paying for.

The market

Corpus Christi is the largest city on the Texas Coastal Bend and the Nueces County seat, on Corpus Christi Bay. Nueces County is one of the 14 coastal counties where new construction has to be inspected and certified by the Texas Department of Insurance to be eligible for Texas Windstorm Insurance Association coverage, and the city requires new homes in mapped flood hazard areas to sit at least a foot above base flood elevation.

How RAZE ran it

Windstorm certification is its own inspection, done by a TDI inspector or an appointed engineer. The draw inspection is the lender's record of progress against the budget, and RAZE links every photo to its draw sheet line item, so the pilings, the roof and the windows each show up under the line they belong to.

The market

New Iberia is the seat of Iberia Parish, on Bayou Teche about 20 miles southeast of Lafayette. Spanish colonists from Málaga founded it in 1779, and it still answers to Queen City of the Teche. The parish is one of Louisiana's leading sugar producers, Avery Island is nearby, and the roads out of town run between cane fields.

How RAZE ran it

A lender financing a build on the Teche doesn't need an inspector of its own in Acadiana. The Marketplace sends a background-checked inspector from the RAZE Inspection Network; a lender that does have someone local routes the order to them by Direct Request. Either way, the order, the capture and the report run through the same workflow.

The market

Lewisburg is the Greenbrier County seat and won Budget Travel's Coolest Small Town in America contest in 2011. It is built on karst: the Greenbrier Valley has West Virginia's most extensive sinkholes and caves, and most of the town lies within one compound sinkhole. East of town, the county climbs to the Allegheny Mountains on the Virginia line.

How RAZE ran it

Rugged terrain has long given West Virginia some of the patchiest cell service in the country, and sites around the valley can be a long way from a signal. The RAZE Mobile App keeps capturing offline, flags which sets of data were captured offline and still need to sync, and syncs everything in full once the device reconnects. The lender gets the complete record either way.
