Steps to Become a NY State Home Inspector 631-563-7720
| 1 |
Determine if this is the right career for you.
YOU NEED a 140 Hour NY
State Approved Course Many people come to us and they have never seen a home inspection performed. Crawling under homes may not be your idea of a fun day. Also, this business requires good people skills and the ability to sell yourself. |
| 2 |
Set up your business properly.
YOU NEED a 140 Hour NY
State Approved Course Decide the structure of your business; corporation, partnership, etc. with the help of a good small business accountant and attorney. Develop a relationship with your bank. Set-up good business practices early. |
| 3 |
Research your marketplace.
YOU NEED a 140 Hour NY
State Approved Course How many homes are sold in the area you will be serving? How many of those homes get inspected? How many other inspectors are in that area? What are the fees charged by your competition? Who are your potential clients?. |
| 4 |
Create a business plan.
YOU NEED a 140 Hour NY State Approved Course Whether you have never been in business for yourself or are a seasoned veteran, the importance of a business plan is critical for success. By answering all the questions addressed in a working business plan you will create a road map for success. |
| 5 |
Choose a market position.
YOU NEED a 140 Hour NY
State Approved Course Too many companies simply copy the marketing messages of the competition. To get people to switch to your service you need to give them a fantastic reason to change. Do not sell your service simply based on price. Many standard market positions exist, such as, innovation, speed, experience, quality, etc. Make sure your chosen position fits your personality. |
| 6 |
Choose a reporting system that fits your style and budget.
YOU NEED a 140 Hour NY
State Approved Course The inspection report can be your biggest marketing tool and your largest expense. A wide variety of reporting methods are available today. Computers can assist you in report creation but can be a large up front expense. When considering the cost of your inspection report remember to factor in the time you or an assistant will spend behind the computer into the costs. Typical narrative reports cost between $5 and $60 to produce. On-site forms make delivery of your report when you complete the inspection easy. If you are computer phobic these on-site reporting forms may be the answer. Many inspectors select internet inspection products. others use checklists. |
| 7 |
Be sure you understand the scope of the work.
YOU NEED a 140 Hour NY
State Approved Course From the outside looking in, home inspection may appear to be an easy job. Well it's not! Understanding all the systems in a home and having the ability to recognize the red flags is an extremely complex task. The liability of inspecting a home without proper knowledge and training is tremendous. Choose your training with care. Compare the opportunities carefully. Not all are equal. Look for courses given at NY State licensed schools. Ask how long the course is and what materials are included. What is the cost of the program? What are the credentials of the instructors and the school? Will you be allowed to upgrade your training or return for additional training at discount prices? |
| 8 |

YOU NEED a 140 Hour NY
