Starting a home inspection business can be intimidating. Indeed, it can be difficult to know where to even begin. And from research to registration, there is a lot that goes into being a successful business owner. Therefore, we wanted to provide an outline to cut down on stress and get your business started the right way. Specifically, we interviewed home inspection industry leaders and your fellow inspectors for their take. What’s more, we supplemented their advice with our own risk management techniques. That way, you can start limiting your liability from the beginning.

We give you six basic steps to start a home inspection business.

Additionally, our brokers are available to answer any questions you may have about effectively managing your risk. And, if you are interested, they can discuss your coverage options. After all, it’s never too early to protect yourself and your business from claims.
