Home Inspection Q&A: Where to Find an Inspector

Question:
What's the best way to find a home inspector?

Answer:
Finding a qualified home inspector is usually fairly simple. Here are some ideas:

• Ask a friend or coworker who has recently bought a home in the area.
• Ask your agent if he or she can recommend a qualified inspector.
• Visit the American Society of Home Inspectors website: www.ashi.org.
• Visit the National Association of Home Inspectors website: www.nahi.org.

Check Their Credentials
When you find a candidate, ask how many home inspections he has done. Also ask what certifications he carries. Your home inspector should be certified by one of the national associations.

Good luck!
