home inspection business

[NotCranky]

[quote=scaredycat]an old guy as a doctor, you assume he’s been a doctor a long time, even if he just graduated med school. probably same with inspection. do these guys make a decent living?[/quote]
I don’t know how many people are making a good living at it. I doubt many are. My guess is that it is an additional source to other income sources mostly. There seem to be a lot of them relative to the opportuities, but like with everything there are probably a few making it somewhat lucrative.

i was thinking maybe studying the subject matter with my kid, I could try to round up business, make him do the work. even if we could do one a week, that would be good money for him…

My only experience with an inspector was a result of representing plaintiffs who were suing him. Look at the website DataAgent posted and click on their standards of practice. Look at what they are not required to do, and what is specifically excluded.

Their standard of care is very low. The one I was involved in was doing it as a secondary source of income. They don’t cost much to get and they are generally not worth what you pay. There are some good ones out there, tho. But I wouldn’t trust an inspection that cost $350.00.

I think it’s possible to make a living doing it. Hook up with some local brokers who will pimp him on their website, and the agents will refer their buyers to. I wouldn’t advise getting E&O insurance. It will put a target on his back and encourage claims/lawsuits rather than discourage them. A young person with a start-up business, with zero assets, does not make for a good defendant. Particularly when you have to cough up tens of thousands of dollars just to get a judgment, which isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.
