For home buyers

The packet is dense. The deadline is short.

Bring the resale stack (disclosure package or disclosure documents) into one calm read before contingencies slip away. ScoutReport reads typed PDF text and OCRs scans, including handwritten bylaws, CC&Rs, and meeting minutes in the packet. Preview first; unlock the full report when you are ready.

Preview first. Pay once to unlock. Not legal advice.

  • Questions for your agent

    You need labeled callouts you can bring to the offer call without sounding improvised.

    Unlock the full report, save it, and keep governing docs in ScoutVault for after closing.

For home buyers

Before you unlock ScoutReport.

Can I preview ScoutReport before creating an account?
Yes. Upload a package and view a limited real preview first. Pay once to unlock the full report, then create a free account to save it.
What does ScoutReport do with my HOA packet?
ScoutReport reads the resale package and returns structured signals you can scan and discuss with your decision team.
What if the packet is scanned or handwritten?
ScoutReport reads typed PDF text and OCRs image-only pages. That includes handwritten bylaws, CC&Rs, meeting minutes, and other exhibits that roll into a resale package. Quality flags still call out gaps so you know what to verify against the source.
Can my agent review ScoutReport with me?
Yes. Buyers and agents can use the same ScoutReport summaries as a discussion baseline.
Is ScoutReport legal advice?
No. ScoutReport is software and research for better preparation. Confirm material risks with your agent and qualified professionals.

Composite scenario

Illustrative example, not a customer story

From "what am I even reading" to a clearer conversation at the offer call

Before
A 240-page resale package with transfer fees, special-assessment history, and pet rules buried deep.
Using StreetScout
Run the package through ScoutReport, surface the reserve-study callouts, and bring the one-page summary into the offer conversation.
Outcome
Walk into the conversation with the structured questions in hand instead of a stack of unread pages.

The summary made the reserves callouts impossible to ignore once we sat down to negotiate.
