Don’t Leave Money on the Inspection Table.
The option period is short — the report is not. A single inspection report can document twenty-odd repairs across fifty pages, and you have days to turn that into a number your buyer can ask for. KamuAgent reads the report, prices every documented defect against localized labor and material data, and hands you a negotiation strategy you can send.
Works with any inspection report, from any inspector, in any state.
from upload to a priced punchlist — not days
documented in the average report
What is actually in that report.
Across 50,000 US inspection reports, the numbers are consistent enough to plan around — and large enough that rounding them off costs your buyer real money.

What itemization is actually worth.
Take a $400,000 home. The average inspection report documents $11,222 of repairs. An ask built from the report is a different conversation from an ask built from a hunch.
Typical negotiation gap
| Documented in the average report | $11,2221 |
|---|---|
| A common round-number ask | $2,5002 |
| Gap left on the table | $8,722 |
An illustration, not an average. The $2,500 is an example of an un-itemized ask, and your deals will differ. The point is the size of the gap that documentation closes.
Same $10,000. Very different value to your buyer.
$10,000 off the price
Reduces the loan. At today’s rates that is roughly $63 a month of principal and interest - real, but slow, and it does nothing for a buyer who is cash-poor after the down payment.
$10,000 as a repair credit
$10,000 of liquidity at closing. It covers closing costs, buys down the rate, or funds the repairs themselves. The seller also keeps their headline price, which protects their comp - which is exactly why they often prefer it.
Sellers are already doing this: concessions appeared in 46.2% of US home sales in May 2026, a record for the month, and around three-quarters in the strongest buyers markets.3
The clock starts before you have the report.
Inspection happens
Day one of an option period that is commonly about a week.
Report lands 24-48 hours later
You now have days, not weeks, and the pages have to become a number.
The ask is due
Twenty-odd defects to read, judge, price and justify - or you round to a number and hope.
KamuAgent turns step three into minutes, not days.
50 Pages of Chaos. Priced and Prioritized in Minutes.
Don’t let an overwhelming inspection report kill your option period. Upload any report, from any state. KamuAgent cross-references the findings against property characteristics, localized market data, and a massive database of material and labor costs.
Major Repairs · 2
HVAC · condenser fan motor failing
Unit not maintaining setpoint; motor at end of life.
Roof · cracked shingles at ridge
Multiple cracked shingles along the ridgeline.
Illustrative product interface. Sample data.
No waiting days for contractor bids. You get objective, line-item repair estimates—from water heaters to siding—in minutes, giving your buyers the clarity they need to make informed decisions and save the deal.
You get a completed task, not homework.
A list of prices still leaves you deciding what to ask for and writing it up. KamuAgent does that part too.
A strategy, not a price list
Every defect is sorted into Repair, Credit, or Dismiss - safety items to repair, high-cost items to credit, small and DIY items cleared out so the amendment stays credible. You review and adjust everything before it goes anywhere.
A signature-ready addendum
An Exhibit A of buyer repair and concession requests, ready to attach to your state’s repair amendment, with a credit total and a page reference under every line.
Every figure traceable to a page
Each item cites where in the report it came from. That citation trail is what a listing agent cannot argue with, and what a raw estimate cannot give you.
Negotiation anchors, not contractor bids.
- Estimates are planning ranges built for negotiation. They are not quotes, appraisals, or guarantees of what a repair will cost.
- Always get binding written quotes from licensed local contractors before finalizing any credit or amendment.
- The figures are generated by our platform, not by your inspector. Your inspector reports condition; the pricing is ours, and we label it that way.
We would rather give you a defensible range and say so than a precise number we cannot stand behind.
