How Do I Find A Home Inspector?
October 9, 2008 by Mortgage Align · Leave a Comment
You can ask friends or business acquaintances to recommend a home inspector they have used. Also, your real estate agent and broker are familiar with the service and may be able to provide you with a list of names from which to choose. Whatever your referral source, you can be assured of your home inspector’s commitment to professional standards and business ethics by choosing one who has membership in ASHI.
You can use the Find An Inspector search tool on the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) website for a list of home inspectors in your area who belong to the non-profit professional organization. To have a list mailed to you, call 1-800-743-ASHI (2744).
The American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) publishes a Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics that outlines what you should expect to be covered in your home inspection report.
