So many rewards.    One way to find them.

 
Home Inspectors are respected professionals who use their knowledge to protect families and leave home-buyers more informed about purchasing the home of their dreams. As consumer protection laws become more rigorous, and home buyers protect their investment with the knowledge a home inspection provides, the need for Professional Home Inspectors is greater than ever. A professional home inspection is a key part of nearly every home purchase. This inspection includes a systematic review of all visible parts of the house and its surroundings, from the foundation to the roof, including electrical, plumbing, heating systems, and major appliances. The Inspection report gives buyers the information they need to make a sound home-buying decision. You can begin a career as a Professional Home Inspector in just a few months. Embrace a career with numerous rewards––from the freedoms of working in the field, to setting your own hours, and an income limited only by the energy you devote.
