The chimney report should support the property decision.

A sale or transfer changes the inspection circumstance. Plan the requested systems, accessible areas and deadline before anyone promises a visit or report.

WHY LEVEL II?

NFPA 211 identifies sale or transfer of property as a Level II inspection circumstance. That does not define Chimney4u’s availability, price, report format, turnaround or third-party acceptance.

A DECISION-USEFUL RECORD

One finding should never silently become a sales claim.

Exact Chimney4u report fields remain unverified. The production standard should keep these layers separate so a buyer, seller or agent can see what is known and what remains limited.

01Observation

What was visible, where, and under what access condition.

→
02Finding

What the observations support, with technical basis and confidence.

→
03Limitation

What could not be inspected or remains unresolved.

→
04Next decision

Use, monitor, further evaluate or consider separately scoped repair.

DEADLINE WITHOUT FALSE URGENCY

The deadline is a routing fact—not a promise.

The selected band helps the team prioritize review and decide whether it can meet the transaction need. Only a person with current capacity can accept the requested window.
