Some inspectors in the United States may be wondering what additional help may be available for businesses like theirs affected by the COVID-19 emergency. This information should not be construed as financial advice so you will want to please directly check and verify any information and details with your financial adviser, CPA, or government agencies, before making any responsible decisions, especially since information and programs available may be subject to change. We also don't know the details of any programs available in other countries where our users reside and suggest they directly check with their governmental agencies. However it appears that small business relief is being made available to small businesses in the United States, INCLUDING SOLE PROPRIETORS, in the form of various loan and grant programs. Loans generally must be repaid, although some forgiveness provisions and conditions are apparently available, while grants generally do not need to be repaid.

3D Inspection Systems also has various payment plans and other options available to help inspectors already using 3D or new inspectors starting out who need quality software. Many are taking advantage of the temporary real estate slowdown as a great opportunity to focus on tweaking software settings and making customizations that may have been put off until now. Please contact our sales department on our Contact page for more information.
