American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) is the national professional
organization of home inspectors with members throughout the United
States and Canada. ASHI's mission is to meet the needs of its membership
and promote excellence and exemplary practice within the profession.
ASHI's Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics are to be followed
by its membership.
The
American Society of Home Inspectors was formed in 1976 as a
not-for-profit organization to build
public awareness of home inspection and to enhance the technical
and professional performance of home inspectors. It is the
oldest and most respected professional association of home
inspectors in North America, representing its membership and
the profession as a whole in areas of education, marketing,
and communications.
Buying a house may seem like an endless series of critical,
important decisions. When you find the house that is right for
you, you need to find a home inspector to educate you about the
condition of your new home. This is a commonplace and a wise
decision, even when buying a newly constructed home; the additional
peace of mind that a professional home inspection offers is invaluable.
Find an Inspector That You Trust
Choosing an ASHI inspector means choosing someone you can trust
to objectively and independently provide you with a comprehensive
analysis of the home’s major systems and components—apart from
anyone's interests other than your own.
Trust Us When Buying a House—We Speak House
ASHI members know houses, ensuring that you can find a home
inspector. They are trained to objectively communicate to
you, the home
inspection buyer, what the house has to say. ASHI members have
demonstrated technical proficiency and report-writing skills,
and they have committed to continuing education in order to
achieve and maintain their member status. ASHI members also
know about
service, so we’ll help you find an inspector. They've reviewed
feedback from homebuyer surveys conducted by ASHI asking consumers
what they want from a professional home inspector. So they
know ASHI wants and cares about feedback from consumers on
how our
members are doing.
Members are committed to conducting inspections in accordance
with the ASHI Standards of Practice; committed to abiding by
the ASHI Code of Ethics and are dedicated to providing superior
customer service. ASHI Members deliver more than a home inspection,
they deliver the ASHI Experience.
Homebuyers are not the only people who hire ASHI Inspectors.
Homesellers also use ASHI inspections to gain knowledge of the
condition of their home before placing it on the market. Smart
homesellers know that knowledge about their home’s condition
makes the selling process more palatable.
Homebuyers, homesellers, homeowners, or anyone who wants to
make an informed decision about a house based on objective information
deserves a professional ASHI home inspection.
