Draw Inspector Standards

Standards to join the network

Every inspector and inspection firm on RAZE is screened against the same published requirements before they can view or accept a lender's assignment.

How every applicant is screened

  1. 1

    Identity verification

    Government-issued ID verified through a third-party identity provider before an application moves forward.

  2. 2

    Competency assessment

    A residential draw inspection questionnaire with a minimum passing score.

  3. 3

    Watchlist & AML screening

    Automated screening against U.S. and international sanctions and wanted-persons lists.

  4. 4

    Insurance & approval

    Proof of coverage on file, then verification and approval by RAZE before any assignment is visible.

Experience

  • Each inspection company or contractor must have a minimum of three (3) years of residential draw inspection experience.
  • Inspectors with less experience must be backed by a referral or recommendation.

Professionalism

  • Each inspection company must maintain the highest standards of professionalism, both on and off-site.
  • Failure to meet these requirements may result in termination from the network.

Protection & Security

  • All inspectors must use secure passwords and smartphone encryption to access the RAZE Mobile App. Every account is verified and approved by RAZE.
  • Each profile can be accessed from a single device ID at any given time.

Required insurance minimums

Safety

  • Inspectors and inspection companies must provide a background check verifying clearance from U.S. and international government watchlists.

Screened against

  • FBI's Most Wanted Lists
  • Interpol's Most Wanted Lists
  • Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) Sanctions List
  • Denied Persons List
  • Department of State's Sanctions Lists
  • U.S. Treasury's Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List
  • U.S. DEA's Wanted Fugitives Lists

Compliance is continuous, not one-time.

These standards apply for as long as an inspector or firm is on the network. Anyone who falls out of compliance is removed, so lenders can rely on the same screening behind every assignment.
