Case Studies
Inspections are a critical part of property operations, yet for many firms they remain a hidden drag on performance. Managing thousands of inspections across portfolios often means manual work, disconnected systems, and reporting delays. The result is more than lost time — it impacts NOI, compliance, refinancing readiness, and tenant trust.
Property Inspect helps leading US real estate firms turn inspections into a competitive advantage. Our platform standardizes processes across asset types, integrates with existing systems, and adapts to each team’s workflows. The outcome: faster and more accurate reporting, reduced administrative costs, improved compliance, and data you can trust when making portfolio-level decisions.
See how top operators are rethinking inspections — and how you can strengthen your own portfolio performance.

all Chicago: Case Study
In the US, inspections are often the hidden bottleneck in property operations. Manual processes and paperwork can delay onboarding for weeks, holding up everything from refinancing to rehousing.
In our first US case study, a housing organization transformed its inspection process — cutting onboarding time by more than 50% and enabling thousands of properties to be certified faster, safer, and at scale.
City of Baltimore: Case Study
Cities across the US face a common challenge: inspections and approvals that should take days often take weeks or even months. In Baltimore, more than 80% of units failed their first inspection, and the process was slowed by paper forms, mail approvals, and limited housing data.
By moving inspections and housing inventories onto a digital platform, Baltimore built a centralized database of quality units, cut approval times from weeks to days, and accelerated rehousing for nearly 100 people in less than six months.
Cushman & Wakefield: Case Study
Large property managers often face the same challenge: inspections spread across multiple systems, teams, and standards, creating inefficiencies and compliance risks. For Cushman & Wakefield, managing thousands of units meant inspections were time-consuming, inconsistent, and costly.
By moving to a unified digital workflow, they cut inspection times from six hours to two, standardised reporting across asset types, and improved compliance tracking — giving teams more time back while strengthening accountability across their portfolio.
Quickil: Case Study
In the UK pest control sector, compliance inspections are essential but paper-based reporting slows everything down. For Quickil, a London-based pest management firm, outdated processes made it difficult to track activity, highlight risks, and provide timely recommendations to clients.
By moving to digital reporting, they cut reliance on paper by 75%, streamlined inspector scheduling, and gave clients clearer, more detailed reports. The result: faster compliance, improved efficiency, and expanded service capacity across residential and commercial properties.
IHS: Case Study
In South Africa’s housing market, paper-based inspections and manual dispute resolution were slowing down operations and driving up costs. For a property manager overseeing thousands of affordable housing units, this meant longer turnaround times, more disputes, and higher risk.
By digitising inspections and reporting, the team performed more than 46,000 inspections through a single system, cut time spent on-site, reduced tenant disputes, and built a secure, fully documented process that strengthened compliance and improved tenant experience.
City Property: Case Study
In South Africa’s urban property market, inspections are a critical part of tenant move-ins, move-outs, and building compliance — but paper-based processes were creating delays, duplication, and disputes. For City Property, managing large portfolios across Johannesburg and Tshwane meant that inspections were slowing down operations and making it harder to recover tenant damages.
By digitising inspections and integrating with MRI Property Central, they cut inspection time by more than an hour per unit, reduced disputes with clear audit trails, and saved over 2,800 staff hours across 1,000 properties.
Bugs & Sparks: Case Study
Compliance inspections are a core part of property management in South Africa, yet paper-based processes made them slow, costly, and prone to disputes. For Bugs & Sparks, this was holding back efficiency in delivering safety certificates and managing repairs.
By digitising inspections and reporting, they cut time on-site in half, processed nearly 8,000 inspections in a year, and built a secure, auditable system that reduced disputes and improved turnaround times for compliance certificates.
