Home Inspector

[Jacob Cooper]

So I am honestly not sure where I should be putting this because I'm new. I want to get my Home Inspection certification and I was just wondering if there was anyone else that is currently doing the same thing? If so which website are you going through? I was thinking about NACHI but was wondering if there were any better websites or softwares.

@Brian Greenway It has almost been a month since I started and I actually enjoy it. I am learning a ton of things that will help me in my investment career even I don't decide to become a home inspector. So far, I am "certified" in roof, plumbing and electrical inspection (I use quotations because I feel that knowing information isn't the same as applying it).

For me, the biggest factor was the pricing of online courses. I work full-time so its the only option. ASHI also looked great but, it seems much more restrictive and expensive. Maybe they have better information? I dont know. With NACHI, I can put myself on a schedule and finish in 6 months for roughly 1/3 of the price of what the online course for ASHI costs. Or, if I decided that I no longer want to pursue inspection or just want to take a month off, I can simply not pay for the next month. With ASHI, you seemed to be locked in for that $1000 and need to finish it all in a year.
