Franchise Q&A

Commonly asked questions and answers about this franchise opportunity.
I don’t have any construction experience, does that matter?
No, business and management acumen, computer prowess and the confidence to market your business and manage others is significantly more important. You can always hire inspectors with relevant construction experience. Home inspections are a learnable skill, especially when taught by the most experienced staff in the industry and have access to on-going education and support.

Why should I choose a HouseMaster Franchise over other business opportunities?
It's truly a great time to join the HouseMaster team. That's because a HouseMaster Franchise is one of the most affordable ways to develop a solid business in a growing industry with an experienced leader. To begin with, there is no building, real estate investment or inventory to carry. And with more and more areas requiring licensing, many part-time inspectors who lack the type of support HouseMaster provides its franchisees are leaving the industry. Others are simply finding too many barriers to enter. Finally, the percentage of transactions where a home inspection is used has been growing and continues to grow, even as markets cool.

Why should I choose a HouseMaster Franchise over other home inspection franchises?

We can’t really answer that question in one short paragraph! As part of the sales process you will be invited to attend a Webinar (Internet Conference) that will review a few of the comprehensive tools that will be available to help you grow your business. All franchisors promise support, but this quick tour of the unique programs available to you as a HouseMaster franchisee, will go a long way in answering this question. In addition, we will encourage you to talk with franchisees, past and present, about their experiences in the system.

HouseMaster

HouseMaster is the first company to franchise in the home inspection industry. HouseMaster is a family owned and operated business and uniquely offers a program called the Right Choice Guarantee. The guarantee gives franchise prospects peace of mind in that if after one year they feel they did not make the right choice by choosing a HouseMaster franchise, HMA will return most of their initial franchise fee. Limitations apply. The more our franchisees get to know about our system, the more they are pleased to be part of the HouseMaster family, and now we Guarantee it!
