XL Pro Titanium Edition Home and Commercial Inspection Report software
Principles of Home Inspection - Systems and Standards NEW 2nd Edition! (released August 2008)
4. XL Pro Titanium Edition Home and Commercial inspection Report software and complete business system
5. Individual One-on-One Guidance. Up to approximately 1 hour of individual, one-on-one telephone support and guidance by your personal instructor and guidance counselor.
A feature that separates this business package from any courses you will find is the Individual One-on-One Guidance. Some candidates will jump right in and study completely on their own but most will need a little help and guidance. The business kit includes up to approximately four hours of individual, one-on-one telephone support and guidance by your personal guidance consultant.
Your support doesn't end when you earn your certification. You may find that going out into the field to do your first inspections is when you most want - and need - someone to turn to for help. Send your reports to your instructor before you send them to your clients. Your instructor will review your reports and make suggestions for improvements if any are needed. Take lots of pictures on your inspections. When you see something that you don't understand, you can send your pictures to your instructor for an opinion.
With a BestInspectors.Net self-study home inspection business kit, you will get all the benefits that you would normally expect from a franchise plus much more without the commitments required of a franchise.
Your certification test can be taken online from your home or anywhere you have internet access. It couldn't be easier!
NEW! August 2008 Second Edition!
Powerful value priced inspection report software that is big on features, small on price. XL Pro Titanium Edition provides the professional home or commercial building inspector with features normally found in reporting software costing hundreds of dollars more.
512 MB RAM (Windows XP) or 2 GB RAM (Windows Vista)
Microsoft Windows XP or Vista (any edition)
Microsoft Office 2003 or 2007 (any edition)
Previously only available in high-end inspection report software, Titanium Edition now includes the Total Control Summary generator. Tag a comment for inclusion in the Summary and TCS will take you to the Summary page where you select exactly where you want the comment to appear. All you do is click a the OK button and your comment will be in the Summary. You will instantly return to where you were working. No other Auto-summary gives you the power and flexibility of Titanium Edition's TCS Auto-summary feature.
Missing something on an inspection is one of the biggest fears of most inspectors. Three out of four inspectors go home or to the office to complete their reports. The main reason cited for not doing inspection reports on-site is a fear of missing something. Titanium Edition's Omission Guard makes it almost impossible to miss anything. Every comment field is highlighted in RED until a check box indicating "Inspected", "Not inspected" or "Not present" is checked. That's not all. If you accidentally check two conflicting checkboxes such as "Inspected" and "Not inspected", the comment field for that item will also be highlighted in RED.
There are times when you inspect a room or a system and everything is OK, there are no defects or deficiencies to report. There may be times when an entire system is not present. In such cases, you want to be able to complete the page related to that system or room as quickly as possible.
Titanium Edition's new Rapid Page Fill allows you to check all check boxes in a column with a single click of the mouse. Click the Rapid Fill checkbox once to place a checkmark in all checkboxes, click it a second time and it will fill all the boxes with an X, click it again to clear all the checkboxes.
XL Pro Titanium Edition gives you maximum flexibility. XL Pro Titanium Edition version 8 now works with any edition of Windows XP or Vista and any edition of Microsoft Office 2003 or 2007.
The powerful XL Pro Command Bars now come to the Titanium Edition. Previously only available in the Silver, Gold, and Platinum Editions, the XL Pro Command Bar brings the power of Titanium Edition's most popular features to the forefront. The XL Pro Command Bar is accessible at all times regardless of where you are in the report or what you are doing.
Do you sometimes want to place a photo right among your text, alongside a narrative, or next to check boxes related to the item depicted in the photo? Now you can. You still have the photo album pages that you have always had in XL Pro Titanium edition but now you can place a photo almost anywhere in the report. No other inspection report software gives you so many options.
Support handwriting recognition is just the start. XL Pro titanium Edition's new pages are optimized for use on the smaller screens of Ultra Mobile Personal Computer's. UMPC's are the perfect alternative to cumbersome, inefficient, difficult to use Pocket PC's.
Pocket PC's are impractical to use for inspections because of the difficulties associated with the scaled down operating systems, small screen size, need for a second PC, and a host of other deficiencies. UMPC's solve all those problems and provide all the benefits of a hand held PC. XL Pro Titanium is the inspection industry's first reporting software optimized for use on UMPC's.
Of course, if you are using a Laptop, Notebook, or Desktop PC, XL Pro Titanium Edition works equally well on those platforms. In fact it is the only inspection report software designed specifically to run on all these platforms.
No other inspection report system has the advanced Spelling and Grammar checking capabilities of XL Pro Titanium Edition. Highlight any text in the report and click a button on the XL Pro Command Bar . It's that easy! XL Pro Titanium Edition's Spelling Checker will advise you not only of spelling errors but will make suggestions for punctuation and grammar too.
With so many sheets to select from to build your report, you need a way to quickly view and navigate to pages in the report. XL Pro Titanium Edition's new navigation system gives you two method's in which to navigate to pages. You still have the traditional line-up of page names at the bottom of the screen in the order that you have them arranged (to follow the sequence of your inspections). Now you have a second, lightning fast, alphabetically arranged drop down menu of page names that allow you to jump directly to any page in the report.
The ability to define a standard report and save it as your default or as a template is one of the most popular features of the Silver Gold and Platinum Editions but was previously not available in the Titanium Edition.
The most powerful feature of the Report is its built-in fully editable library of more than 10,000 pre-defined comments and field descriptors in 111 Categories. Every descriptor and every comments field in the report contains a drop down box of predefined descriptions and comments. Literally tens of millions of combinations are available.
XL Pro Titanium Edition comes complete with a pre-inspection agreement and a full set of business tools including job order forms, receipt, invoice, telephone record, photo log, tri-fold brochure template, Quicklist marketing tool, and much more.
Reports created with XL Pro Titanium Edition will meet or exceed all industry standards throughout the United States and Canada.
(Mandatory beginning February 01, 2009)
XL Pro Titanium Edition is 100% compliant with the requirements of the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC). A continously expandable version of the required TREC REI 7A-1 report is included. The TREC pages can also be used throughout the United States and Canada.
Integration with the InspectorStuff Presentation Kit
XL Pro Titanium Edition directly supports supports The Homeowner's Handbook and the InspectorStuff and NACHI Presentation Kit published by OMD Enterprise, Inc. Two Home Owner's Handbook categories are included in XL Pro Titanium edition so you can quickly access references to the Home Owner's Handbook through XL Pro Drop-downs.
Whether you distribute your reports on CD or print the reports, the the InspectorStuff and NACHI Presentation Kits will enhance your professionalism. Many XL Pro users distribute their reports on CD using Best Inspectors Net's copyrighted auto-running, menu based Report CD Creator instead of printing the report. Imagine how impressed your clients will be when they open the report binder to find a professionally produced CD of your report with relevant cross references to the The Homeowner's Handbook.
