I had a home inspection done and decided to learn how to become a home inspector. Your home inspection course jumped out at me because I could take the home inspector training from home and use my computer. It took a little more than three weeks to finish the course, but less than one week after receiving my Florida home inspector license to start my own business down here and inspect my first home. I'm now working 2-3 days a week and loving it! Thanks! F.K., Ft. Myers, FL Let me tell you about my experience with the home inspector course from PHII. I'm a licensed contractor, but there's a world of difference between inspecting homes and building them. I learned a lot about what goes wrong with homes and what to look for after, say 10-15 years. I bought the home inspection training for my sons, but now they have me inspecting part-time for them! It's absolutely worth the money -- just ask my boys!

Home inspectors use observation skills to determine the condition of real estate property, usually after a client has signed a conditional agreement to purchase that property. A home inspector spends 2-3 hours at the property examining the grounds, structure, exterior, roof, plumbing, electric, insulation, ventilation, interior, attic, bathrooms, kitchen, basement, crawlspaces, heating, air conditioning, and garage or carport. National standards of practice determine which components are inspected and how they are inspected. The home inspector later provides a written home inspection report to the client. If problems were found, the client may use the home inspection report to require the seller to correct the problems or to re-negotiate the sales price of the home. To be successful, a home inspector must understand the interdependent systems in a home, evaluate different components and recognize potential problems. If you have an interest in the real estate field, have an eye for details, communicate well and enjoy the challenge of running a business, then becoming a home inspector is likely a safe bet. The most successful home inspectors see their job as helping their clients better understand the home they own or want to purchase, so that the client can make an informed choice. PHII's home inspector training will help prepare you to compete in today's home inspection service market. What Income Does A Home Inspector Earn? According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, home inspectors earn an average annual salary of approximately $60,000, with the top ten percent averaging over $90,000. Home inspection is a growing occupation in the U.S and Canada. As many older home inspectors retire, there is an even stronger demand for qualified individuals to start careers as home inspectors. The vast majority of homes sold this year will have a pre-closing home inspection performed. Home inspectors typically charge between $400 and $600 to inspect the average home depending on the region of the country and the size of the property. An estimated 5 million home inspections are conducted in the United States each year. What Are the Steps to Getting Started with Home Inspection? The first step is to check our State Licensing page to determine the home inspector licensing requirements in your state, then to select the best training option, whether it's classroom or online.
