City of Tampa launches virtual inspections for homeowners, contractors

Builders and homeowners in the city of Tampa can say goodbye to days spent waiting around for an in-person inspection. 

Now, all it takes to secure an official building inspection is a smartphone and a new app introduced by the city’s Development and Growth Management team earlier this month. 

VuSpex is a virtual building inspections tool designed to streamline the process and reduce lengthy wait times, allowing contractors and homeowners to get inspections completed on the spot, without ever leaving their site.
