Alabama has only a
few requirements to become a Licensed Home
Inspector, but these are absolutely necessary for
you to start earning a paycheck in this career
field. Alabama started requiring licensure in 2002,
that license being issued by the Alabama Building
Commission.
The first requirement is to successfully complete
the ASHI Standards and Ethics Exam and the NHIE
Exam.
The second is membership in one of the following
recognized organizations for Licensed Housing
Inspectors:
ASHI – American Society of Housing Inspectors
NAHI – National Home Inspection Examination
NIBI – National Institute of Building Inspectors
The American Inspectors Society
Home Inspection Institute of America

You must have a Certification of Approval by one of
the following organizations:
ICC - International Code Council
USVA - U.S. Veterans Administration
HUD - U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development
OR
You must be licensed in Alabama on or after January
1, 1998 in one of the following fields:
General Contractor
Registered Professional Architect
Registered Professional Engineer

OR
You are required to have a high school diploma or
equivalent (GED) and one year’s experience as a home
inspector and proof of completing 100 home
inspections for monetary compensation.
Finally, you must have proof of a Liability and
Errors & Omissions Insurance policy.
The field of home inspections is a fast growing
business and can be an amazing source of income and
pride. You may wonder how that is possible with the
slow down in the housing market; the truth is that
housing inspectors are being used much more
frequently to insure that home buyers are not buying
‘hidden’ or undisclosed problems that have resulted
from the previous owner’s inability to pay for
needed repairs or to properly maintain the home.
Potential buyers are using this information to
either reduce the purchase price, facilitate repairs
prior to purchase, or to walk away from a deal that
would have landed them much further in debt in order
to accomplish the necessary repairs. Find more home inspection courses online.
Just think of the satisfaction that you would get
from a career that enables you to help people, to
insure that they are not being taken advantage of,
while still being able to claim the caveats of
owning your own business. You will be your own boss
and able to set your own hours. You will benefit by
tax write offs for business use of your vehicle, for
a home office and for all supplies, licensing fees,
professional fees and advertising. Even the new
computer you purchase to take your distance learning
classes is considered a business expense. You will
feel the same pride that millions of business owners
experience as their business and reputation grows.
And it couldn’t be simpler. We also recommend checking out our other online degrees that are offered by our other schools. |
