TL;DR
Pillar To Post launches PTPHomePage, a digital home inspection platform designed to streamline operations for franchisees and deliver a dynamic experience for homebuyers and agents. The platform was built in-house over six years using Salesforce and AWS to ensure speed, scalability, and security.
Designed and implemented entirely in-house over six years, PTPHomePage streamlines operations for franchisees while delivering a dynamic, real-time experience for homebuyers and their agents. The platform replaces static PDFs and clunky email threads with a centralized, interactive dashboard that includes:
Interactive floor plans
Digital inspection reports
Customizable repair request tools
The Home Manual – a living document featuring appliance data, maintenance reminders, and warranty tracking
Agent dashboards – empowering real estate professionals with a searchable archive of inspection history
“PTPHomePage was built to modernize how we deliver value,” said Charles Furlough, CEO and President of Pillar To Post. “For buyers and agents, it makes the inspection process easier to understand, act on, and revisit. For our franchise business owners, it’s become an operational game-changer that streamlines client communication, saves time, and reinforces our position as the most trusted name in home inspection.”
Unlike off-the-shelf solutions, PTPHomePage is a proprietary platform developed over the course of six years using Salesforce and AWS to ensure speed, scalability, and security. As the only home inspection company to build its own client-facing software, Pillar To Post created a future-ready ecosystem tailored to the specific needs of real estate transactions.
“Too often, tech in this industry feels like an afterthought,” said Guy Dewar, Chief Technology Officer for Pillar To Post. “We built PTPHomePage to feel as user-friendly as online banking or shopping to give buyers, sellers, and agents a personalized, seamless environment to get everything they need without friction or confusion. This isn’t just a tech upgrade, it's a total service transformation.”
In addition to improving transparency and accessibility for clients, PTPHomePage serves as a launchpad for expanded home services. Through integrations like PTP Connects, clients can opt into post-inspection support services like utility setup and contractor referrals. The platform’s flexibility allows it to continuously evolve based on user feedback and market trends.
