Home Inspector Podcast

Home maintenance involves the risk of bodily injury and damage to personal property. Don’t perform home repairs by yourself. Stay safe. 

Learn business and marketing tips as a Florida-licensed and certified home inspector in this video recording of a recent live class with InterNACHI's Ben Gromicko at the House of Horrors® in Florida. 

Home maintenance is a primary responsibility for every homeowner. Staying on top of a seasonal home maintenance schedule is very important, and the neighborhood InterNACHI® Certified Home Inspector can help. 

Throughout InterNACHI's free, online Introduction to Home Inspections Course, there are references to the InterNACHI® Home Inspection Standards of Practice. 

The estate agent has a fiduciary duty to their client and, therefore, must recommend the very best inspectors. If the agent recommends a patty-cake inspector, an inspector who indirectly pays for the agent's recommendation or a cheap inspector, they violate their fiduciary duty to their client.

Every homeowner has similar concerns and questions related to maintaining their home. The following questions are those that all homeowners ask themselves. 

The home inspector can inspect a home and report upon the home’s condition as it was at the time of the inspection. That is the main responsibility of the home inspector. A home inspection does not include predictions of future events, house warranties, or guarantees that nothing will ever go wrong.

Just like the engine of an automobile, a house works as a system of interdependent parts. Every part has an impact on the operation of many others. A typical home has over 10,000 systems and components. Visit https://www.nachi.org/introduction-home-inspection-course.htm
