The following tips are important :
Although obvious, there are safety precautions that every home inspector should never ignore. It may be as simple as ensuring that you have the correct safety clothing and equipment, but this is the foundation of the home inspection profession.
It's absolutely critical to have a current license and insurance. Even if your state does not require licensing, insurance should be a "must have." Know your renewal date and schedule continuing education classes early enough so you are not in fear of a license lapse.
Each state and local jurisdiction has their own laws that pertain to the home inspection industry and they do tend to change. Make it your responsibility to understand local laws and ensure you are not putting your license and career in jeopardy.
How home inspectors take notes, document findings and present results to clients is of paramount importance. There are always ways to improve these reports and increase the potential for repeat business. In addition, all records need to be maintained as required by state regulations.
Whether it is the increase in green building practices, the usage of dangerous construction practices or materials, or any other new construction trends, it's a home inspector's duty to know about the latest-and-greatest materials and techniques.
"Home inspectors are busy professionals who provide an important service," says Annie Creek, New Market and Compliance Specialist at McKissock. "We are committed to helping home inspectors deliver up-to-date knowledge to their customers and have the confidence that they are complying with their state or association's regulations."
