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.
| Aspect | Home Inspector | Building Inspector |
|---|---|---|
| Certifications | Home Inspection License, possibly certifications like ASHI or InterNACHI | Building Inspection Certification, often state-specific licenses |
| Work Environment | Inspect residential properties, including homes and condos | Inspect various structures, including residential, commercial, and public buildings |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Real estate agencies, independent inspectors, homebuyers | Municipalities, government agencies, construction firms |
| Common Search & Comparison | Yes | Yes |
Home inspectors primarily evaluate residential properties for buyers and sellers, focusing on home systems and safety. Building inspectors often work for government agencies, inspecting a variety of structures for code compliance. While both roles require inspection certifications, home inspectors focus on homes, whereas building inspectors have a broader scope across different building types.
