FAQ

Common questions, straight answers.

Who is Roost Inspect for?
+

Self-managing landlords who want to protect their property investment, stay compliant with local tenancy laws, and eliminate bond disputes with clear, immutable evidence.

Who can complete the inspection?
+

You can run it yourself, or delegate it to a tenant, co-owner, or property manager. The app guides them through the exact same workflow, but you retain final approval.

How does state compliance work?
+

Our system automatically checks your local tenancy act for required notice periods and frequency limits. It prevents you from scheduling non-compliant entries, keeping you legally protected.

What if I manage my property remotely?
+

Perfect. You can delegate the physical walkthrough to your tenant or a local contact. They complete the guided flow, and you review and sign the finished report from anywhere.

Why are move-in photos so important?
+

They establish the undisputed baseline condition. If a dispute arises at exit, tribunal members look at side-by-side move-in and move-out photos to make their ruling.

When will Roost Care be available?
+

Roost Care is currently in beta. You can request early access to start turning your inspection issues into tracked maintenance workflows today.

How does the free launch offer work?
+

Sign up during our launch phase and get 10 free inspection credits to use within 4 months. No credit card required, and no auto-billing.

Is Roost a surveillance tool?
+

No. Roost only operates during scheduled, consensual inspections and does not track location or capture media outside of active workflows.
