Home Inspector (HI) Training

Why become a Home Inspector?

Home Inspectors produce Home Condition Reports (HCRs). The HCR includes a detailed condition report of a property’s current state and highlights any potential future concerns that a purchaser may have. This document can accompany the EPC.

Although not a mandatory component, a small number of home sellers (usually at the higher end of the market) will select to include a HCR to help potential purchasers make a more informed decision when making an offer and reduce the future likelihood of a sale falling through once a sale has been agreed.

Green Qual recommend that you research the demand for HCRs in your area before committing to this training. It is possible to upgrade from the level 3 domestic energy assessor course to become a Home Inspector. Discounts are available for candidates who have already qualified as a DEA. See the links at the bottom of this page for other related training courses.
