What does a home inspector do?

A home inspector is a professional who evaluates the condition of a residential property, usually as part of a real estate transaction. They examine the home's structure, systems, and components, such as the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems. The inspector then provides a detailed report outlining any issues or potential concerns, helping buyers and sellers make informed decisions. Home inspectors do not make repairs but offer a visual assessment to identify problems that may need further attention.

Is a home inspection career worth it?

A home inspection career can be financially rewarding and offers flexible scheduling, with inspectors typically earning a median annual income that varies by region and experience. It requires certification, knowledge of building codes, and the ability to assess property conditions accurately. Many inspectors find the work satisfying due to its independence and demand in the real estate market.

How much does a home inspector make per home?

Home inspectors typically do not earn a fixed amount per home inspected; instead, they charge a fee for each inspection, which can range from $300 to $500 on average. Their income depends on the number of inspections completed, experience, certifications, and regional demand, with many working independently or for inspection companies. The fee often covers a comprehensive assessment of the property's condition, including structural, electrical, and plumbing systems.

Is it hard to get hired as a home inspector?

Getting hired as a home inspector can vary depending on location and experience, but generally requires certification, knowledge of building codes, and sometimes a background in construction or related fields. Building a strong reputation and gaining relevant certifications can improve employment prospects in this field.

What are some common challenges Home Inspectors face during property evaluations, and how can they address them?

Home Inspectors often encounter challenges such as limited access to certain areas (like attics or crawlspaces), dealing with uncooperative weather, or managing clients’ expectations about inspection findings. To address these, inspectors should communicate clearly with clients about what can and cannot be inspected, use specialized tools for hard-to-reach spaces, and maintain thorough documentation. Building strong relationships with real estate agents and staying updated on building codes also help navigate these challenges effectively.

How long does it take to become a certified home inspector?

Becoming a certified home inspector typically requires completing 60 to 140 hours of training, depending on state or certification requirements, followed by passing a licensing exam. The process can take several months to a year, including gaining practical experience and continuing education to maintain certification.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Home Inspector, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Home Inspector, you need a thorough understanding of building systems, construction standards, and property evaluation, typically supported by relevant state licensing or certification. Familiarity with inspection software, digital reporting tools, and basic measurement instruments is essential. Strong attention to detail, effective communication, and integrity are standout soft skills for this role. These skills and qualities ensure accurate, trustworthy inspections that help clients make informed real estate decisions.

What Does a Home Inspector Do?

Home inspectors examine new and existing houses, typically during the escrow process of a home sale transaction, to determine the condition of the house and to point out any repairs that should be made. In this role, you travel to the home and inspect the interior and exterior areas, including crawl spaces and attics. You also check all major systems of the house, such as the electrical lines, plumbing, and air conditioning unit. You photograph each space, noting any problems or issues you believe the buyer should consider before purchasing. Once your inspection is done, you generate a report and forward it to the homeowner, buyer, and real estate agents involved in the sale.

Job description

Role Overview
Compensation: $22.50/hrSchedule: Full-time | Availability to frequently work weekends, holidays, early mornings, and evenings (with 2 days off each week)$135/month car allowance $100/month for tools and equipment
As a Hospitality Coordinator, you're the on-the-ground expert keeping our short-term rental homes functional, clean, and stocked for every guest. You'll be field-based, covering a subset of homes in your zone, and reporting to the Team Lead, Hospitality Ops. Your work directly shapes guest satisfaction, review scores, and the care of our homeowners' properties.
The Details:
What we do and why we do it
As the leading end-to-end investment platform for single-family rental homes (SFR), our mission is to reinvent the rental housing ecosystem for the benefit of all. We successfully merge our passion for helping investors build wealth through real estate with cutting edge technology that transforms the way they do it.
How it's going (and growing)
With a talented team of 750+ Roofsters, our collaborative, can-do culture is what fuels our growth. In 2022, we closed on our Series E, raising $240 million, and have offices in the Bay Area and New York City. Our growth includes recent acquisitions of Stessa (financial and asset management software), RentPrep (tenant screening and placement service for landlords), and Mynd (property management platform for both Retail and Institutional investors). In 2025, Roofstock took an ownership stake in Casago (short-term rental management services), expanding our platform to support both long-term and short-term rental investment services.
Roofstock's Values Short-Term Rental (STR) Org Reflection
  • We are entrepreneurs → Launch a startup within a startup
  • We are better together → Work across functions & business units to do it fast and well
  • We focus on impact → Build a profitable business unit with satisfied owners, teammates, and guests

About the Team
Roofstock's STR team has the opportunity to build and shape an entirely new business unit together. The team is obsessed with people, in particular our owners, our guests, and our teammates. We extend our hospitality to everyone around us, there's no such thing as "not my job," and we celebrate our wins together. We plan to expand within our current markets as well as to roll out new markets in the years to come. Much like a startup business, things are fast-paced, intense, and exhilarating. And when the team wins, we all win.
About the Role
As a Hospitality Coordinator, you'll serve as the on-the-ground expert responsible for keeping our homes functional, clean, and stocked (FCS) for every guest. You'll perform inspections, restock supplies, prep for arrivals, complete light maintenance, and respond to in-market issues during and between stays.
This role is a combination of what many companies call a property caretaker and a runner and may at times include work more generally associated with that of a hotel front desk. You'll be field-based, covering a subset of homes in your zone, and will report to the Team Lead, Hospitality Ops. Your work will directly impact guest satisfaction, review scores, and how well we care for our homeowners' properties.

  • Support turnovers with tasks like bedmaking, resetting decor, tidying, and removing trash
  • Respond quickly to urgent in-stay needs or on-the-ground guest issues when dispatched
  • Track supply usage and flag homes with unusual patterns or repeated problems
  • Be a visible, professional presence in the field, supporting teammates and guests as needed including occasionally taking incoming phone calls/messages and making outbound calls/messages to guests and owners
  • Support Hospitality Managers with dispatching of field tasks during non-peak times of day
  • Primarily support the operations of your zone while being available to assist other zones as needed based on market need
  • Other duties as assigned

Success Measures
  • Guest satisfaction and review scores (portfolio average above 4.8)
  • Number of inspections completed per shift/day
  • Completion rate and accuracy for assigned tasks
  • Responsiveness to urgent or in-stay issues
  • Homes consistently meeting FCS standards as verified by market leadership

Qualifications
  • 1+ years of experience in hospitality, property care, vacation rentals, or related field
  • Detail-oriented and highly reliable
  • Ability to follow checklists and brand standards consistently
  • Physically capable of lifting 25+ lbs and walking/standing throughout the day
  • Strong communication skills and service-minded attitude
  • Comfort using mobile apps and task tracking tools
  • Valid driver's license and reliable vehicle required
  • Able to work weekends, holidays, and on-call rotations

Work Environment and Physical Demands
  • Must be comfortable walking, standing, bending, lifting up to 50 lbs
  • Frequent travel within market and regular driving between properties is required
  • Work is conducted primarily in-home, with some supply runs or warehouse coordination as needed
  • Availability to frequently work weekends, holidays, early mornings, and evenings (with 2 days off each week)
