Abstract: Methods and systems for automated property insurance inspection include a remote inspection device having video inspection equipment capable of providing video images of property for use by an insurance company. The images may be used for expediting claim processing, inspecting damage in hazardous or hard to reach places, loss avoidance/risk control, fraud detection, detecting changes in risk profile, underwriting, rating, and quoting on new accounts and renewals, and prospecting new customers. The inspections may be performed on the exterior or interior of the property, and may be performed periodically, on-demand or continuously.
