Your Referral

Is the Home Inspector you refer really qualified to help your Client?

Licensing of home inspectors only sets a minimum standard.  Much like being up to code, any less would be illegal.  

Children, psychics (who claim to "sense" if a house is OK) and even pets can be home inspectors.  That is why NACHI front-ends its membership requirements.  We turn down more than 1/2 the inspectors who want to join because they can't pass our exam or fulfill our membership requirements.

Our inspectors have to meet all of our membership requirements and pass our exam before being accepted into NACHI.  We don't offer associate or candidate memberships (junior memberships for inspectors who have not met the requirements). 

NACHI inspectors:

• Have to pass NACHI's  Online Inspector Examination  every year.  (This general, not association-specific exam is open and free to all).

• Have to complete NACHI's online Ethics Obstacle Course. (This open book Ethics course is open and free to all).

• Have to take NACHI's online Standards of Practice Quiz (This open book Standards of Practice quiz is open and free to all).

Don't settle for using or recommending a candidate or associate of any association - your clients will appreciate that you took the time to find them a truly qualified professional to perform their home inspection.  So, the next time you need to refer your clients to a home inspector, make sure you are recommending a NACHI certified home inspector.
