Real estate disputes often turn on a single document — a disclosure that omitted a known defect, an email that proves the seller knew, or a contract clause that was never satisfied. ProvaLens indexes every document and cross-references disclosures against inspection reports, correspondence, and property records.
-
Seller disclosure cross-referenced against inspection reports
ProvaLens checks the seller disclosure against the buyer's inspection reports and any seller-commissioned inspections — flagging possible defects documented by an inspector that were not disclosed, for you to check.

-
Known defect documentation identified in prior correspondence
Emails, text messages, and contractor correspondence referencing property defects — dated before closing — are identified and indexed to establish what the seller knew and when they knew it.
Core fraud evidence
-
HOA violation history compared against disclosure
HOA correspondence, violation notices, and assessment records are cross-referenced against the disclosure to identify HOA issues that were not properly disclosed to the buyer.
-
Permit and code violation history verified
Building permits, code enforcement records, and unpermitted work references in the documents are identified and compared against the seller disclosure — including any work done without required permits.
-
All contingency deadlines mapped against actual performance
Inspection contingency, financing contingency, and appraisal contingency dates from the contract are extracted and compared against the documented date each condition was satisfied or waived.

-
Required inspections verified as completed
Inspections required by the contract — septic, well, roof, structural — are identified from the contract terms and cross-referenced against inspection reports to confirm each required inspection was performed.
-
Title commitment requirements cross-referenced against closing documents
Requirements and exceptions in the title commitment are compared against the closing documents to confirm each requirement was satisfied before title was transferred.
-
Repair agreements compared against final walkthrough documentation
Agreed repairs from the inspection negotiation are cross-referenced against the final walkthrough notes and any closing credits — identifying items agreed to but not completed.
Common dispute trigger
-
Email correspondence indexed by party and date
All correspondence between buyer, seller, agents, lenders, and attorneys is indexed chronologically — making it possible to reconstruct the full transaction timeline from the parties' own communications.

-
Seller/agent communications regarding property condition identified
Emails and text messages in which the seller or listing agent discussed the property's condition — with contractors, prior buyers, or each other — are extracted and indexed for disclosure timeline analysis.
-
Disclosure timeline — when seller knew vs. when buyer was told
The date a defect was first referenced in any document is compared against the date it appeared in the disclosure or was communicated to the buyer — establishing the timeline of knowledge vs. disclosure.
Establishes scienter
-
Post-inspection communications cross-referenced
Seller and agent communications after the buyer's inspection is delivered are indexed — particularly any response to inspection findings that contradicts what was disclosed or agreed to.
-
Chain of title reviewed for gaps or encumbrances
Title documents, deeds, and conveyance history are indexed and any gaps in the chain of title or undisclosed encumbrances are flagged for the title dispute analysis.
-
Easements and restrictions cross-referenced against disclosure
Easements, deed restrictions, and use limitations appearing in the title documents are compared against what was disclosed to the buyer in the contract and disclosure documents.

-
Lien and judgment search compared against title commitment
The lien and judgment search results are compared against the title commitment's Schedule B exceptions — confirming all encumbrances were addressed before closing or properly disclosed.
-
Survey compared against legal description in contract
The survey's legal description and boundary delineation is compared against the legal description in the contract and deed — flagging any discrepancy in boundaries or encroachments.
From the field: In one case, ProvaLens surfaced an email from the seller's agent to their contractor — sent six months before closing — referencing "the ongoing foundation issue." The seller disclosure said "no known structural problems."
