Tips for choosing a home inspector

How To Choose the Right Home Inspector.

No laws require a home inspector to be licensed by any board in Kansas. Because of the lack of a legal guarantee of qualification, the American Society of Home Inspectors is a precious resource for you to use in your search. ASHI’s tools are designed to help simplify the process of finding a trustworthy inspector. Dru Gordon of Gordon & Associates is ASHI certified and has assisted clients with the process for over 20 years.

Why ASHI Matters

The National Commission of Certifying Agencies (NCCA) is an independent, non-governmental agency that sets the standard for professional certification programs via NCCA accreditation. This means that the criteria ASHI-certified inspectors meet to receive their certification is strenuous enough to guarantee competence.

Other Sources of Information

Aside from certifications, it’s foundational to remember whom you can turn to for advice or referrals for a home inspector. Your realtor could be a great first person to talk to for a referral, they can be an excellent resource given their experience with the process, and you should ask them if they have worked with anyone they trust. You should also talk to any friends or family who have had to hire a home inspector in Overland Park or Kansas City area to buy or sell their home recently.
