Many inspectors claim to be "certified" such as"NAHI," "NIBI," "NABI,""ASHI," OR "NACHI." What does this really mean? It may mean very little. There are many associations of home inspectors, some of whom do not certify anything beyond membership in that organization (generally obtained simply by paying a fee). There is no meaningful control over these "certified" inspectors' qualifications or expertise. Some real estate brokers require this type thing, but it severely drives up the costs. With no prerequisite qualifications or licenses, virtually anyone can become a home inspector; however SC has certain requirements and a license, still minimal though. Someone with the type experiences, multiple licenses and years of experience that we have, really can give you a meaningful home or business inspection.
THIS IS WHY I ALWAYS INSPECT EVERYTHING AS IF IT WERE FOR ME OR MY FAMILY:
