Starting a home inspection franchise can be complex. First you may need to get licensed, then you need to market your business to local realtors. You also need a set process or checklist for completing your inspections. Once you start to build some business, providing quality service can help you grow through word of mouth. However, home inspection franchises allow you to sidestep a lot of that initial setup work. Starting with an established brand and set of processes can help you get off the ground much faster with your franchise.
