Although these states do not regulate their home inspectors and no licensing is required, you want to protect yourself by making sure you have good training to learn how to properly perform home inspections. You want to be able to tell your clients that you have gone through extensive home inspector training. A Better School of Building Inspection has been training home inspectors for over 22 years. We recommend that you complete either our 60-Hour or 90-Hour Home Inspection Package. Both packages include the following:
  • The 12-Volume Video set showing you close to 2000 scenes of real defects from actual homes.
  • The 500-page manual with over 350 line diagrams, hands-on inspection procedures, marketing ideas, and more.
  • The 2-Video Virtual Inspection set (regular price $100).
  • As a Special Bonus, we include the Residential Inspection Forms on CD at no extra cost. Most companies charge $300 to $900 for inspection forms.
  The 90 Hour Course also includes the 11 Video "Live" Classroom Series for only $100 more.
You have the option to either receive the DVDs and book for you to study from and keep as reference, or you can save some money and view and read all the material online. Make your choice below.

Includes all the same material as the 90-Hour Home Inspection Training Course, but the material is online. You can access the course material for one full year.
With our training material, you can study at your own pace at a time that is convenient for you. Now is the time to start a new career and be your own boss.  Through our program, you will develop an ability to recognize how homes fail (a very specialized knowledge base) long after they have been built under code. Only people who have extensive experience in repair & maintenance in ALL the different trades would already know the kinds of things taught in a good quality home inspector training program. Even those highly qualified individuals would not know where a home inspection begins and where it ends. They might under-inspect or over-inspect a home if they do not learn what is expected in a home inspection. We teach that as well!
