PICRA Verification

PICRA stands for Property Inspection Contingency Removal Addendum.

A PICRA Verification is a limited reinspection performed after negotiated repairs have been completed. Its purpose is to visually confirm whether the specific agreed-upon items appear repaired at the time of the visit.

This service focuses only on the items listed in the repair agreement.

During a PICRA Verification, we:

• Review the written repair agreement
• Revisit the specific components listed
• Visually evaluate completed work
• Document current conditions with photos
• Confirm whether repairs appear complete

The inspection is limited to the items identified in the agreement.

Clear expectations are essential.

A PICRA Verification is NOT:

• A full home inspection
• A warranty of the repair
• A guarantee of workmanship quality
• A code compliance inspection
• An invasive evaluation

We do not dismantle systems.
We do not perform destructive testing.
We do not certify contractor work.

We document visible conditions at the time of reinspection.

In a real estate transaction, repair negotiations can involve multiple systems and contractors.

A verification helps you:

• Confirm repairs were completed
• Identify incomplete or missed items
• Document current visible condition
• Provide clarity before closing

It provides peace of mind during an already busy transaction.

Only items specifically listed in the repair agreement are evaluated.

Items not listed:
• Are not inspected
• Are not implied to be acceptable
• Are outside the scope of this service

If additional concerns are discovered, expanding the scope or scheduling a full inspection may be recommended.
