Becoming A Certified North Carolina Home Inspector
There are few careers as rewarding or as versatile as home inspection. Self-employed home inspectors set their own hours and work as much or as little as they’d like, and each day on the job offers new opportunities to help buyers make educated decisions about their future homes. Given the flexibility and fulfilling nature of this line of work, it’s no wonder so many people are curious about how to become a home inspector.
The good news is that the barrier to entry is relatively low. While some career tracks require extensive training and experience to get started, prospective home inspectors can train in a matter of weeks. With the help of ICA School, a complete novice can become a successful, practicing home inspector in just a few short months. Starting the next chapter of your professional life has never been more convenient.
How to Become a Home Inspector in North Carolina
Home inspection training in NC is fairly straightforward. First, you’ll complete 120 hours of online learning. Next, you’ll get 80 hours of field experience with a licensed home inspector. Finally, you’ll need to take and pass the North Carolina Home Inspectors Exam. Once you’ve earned a passing score, you’ll have everything you need to go into business for yourself or start working for an existing home inspection business.
Home buyers want to make informed decisions when shopping for a new house. When they’re equipped with all the facts, they can make the right choice for their needs. While home inspections are not required by law in North Carolina, savvy buyers won’t move forward with a sale without first consulting with a home inspector.
A high-quality inspection can uncover critical details about the condition of a property and its various systems. Buyers can learn what repairs, maintenance, and safety issues to expect in the immediate and distant future. Buyers who aren’t comfortable with the findings of an inspection can usually back out of the sale without being penalized. It is important to have an inspection completed by NC home inspectors.
Home Inspector Salary North Carolina
A home inspector salary in North Carolina can exceed $80,000 per year if you perform four inspections per week or more. Part time inspectors may make less as they first start out, while more experienced professionals may earn far more. Home inspection is what you make of it – the more homes you inspect, the more income you’ll generate and the more word of mouth you’ll foster. Growing your customer base begins by proving your reliability and skills to local real estate professionals. Home Inspectors who perform well are a regular referral for the clients of realtors. Home inspection is a business that can be built into a large operation with multiple inspectors working for one business.
Home inspector salaries vary based on how many inspections you’re willing to do per week. Some professionals limit their schedules to one job per day, spending lots of time in every nook and cranny of a property. Other home inspectors may schedule an early morning appointment and one after lunch, essentially doubling their earning capacity for the day. You set your own working hours as a home inspector, so the choice is yours.
Why Earn Your Home Inspector License in NC
The job market can be very unpredictable, and home inspectors enjoy a level of job security that other professionals don’t. As long as people are buying and selling property, home inspectors will always find ways to earn a living. Beyond the stability, there’s also job satisfaction to consider. It’s incredibly empowering to be able to help home buyers make informed purchases. If you’re hoping to find a career that helps your fellow man, become a home inspector.
