Job Description

We are looking for a Full Time Home Inspector to join our team!

Home Inspector Duties and Responsibilities:

• Conduct Inspections - Home inspectors conduct inspections on residential properties to check for compliance and assess if there are hazards or structural defects. This entails examining both the interior and exterior of the property, including infrastructure, electrical and plumbing systems, and water quality.
• Arrange Repairs - In response to issues discovered during inspections, home inspectors communicate with realtors, homeowners, or potential buyers to coordinate repairs and improvements, which may include carpentry, plumbing fixes, and system re-installation.
• Create Reports - It’s the job of home inspectors to create detailed reports about their inspection findings and present these to homeowners. Aside from descriptions of defects and recommendations for repair and maintenance, these also contain extensive photos, diagrams of property structures, and notes from site observation.
• Assist Clients - Home inspectors work closely with clients throughout every step of the process, approaching inspections based on client requirements and regularly updating them about progress and issues encountered. They strive to be as transparent as possible by relaying all inspection information to clients.

Qualifications:

• Valid drivers license and reliable means of transportation
• Virginia State Home Inspector License Preferred
• Technical expertise – even though they follow established procedures, home inspectors need engineering knowledge to correctly evaluate properties, and they should be able to take measurements and read and create property diagrams
• Data entry – documentation is a crucial part of home inspections, which often turn up a massive amount of data that home inspectors must organize into an easily understood format, so they must be accurate and efficient with data entry
• Communication skills – it’s essential for home inspectors to have excellent writing skills, since they prepare exhaustive summary reports after every inspection. They should also be able to explain findings to clients face-to-face
• Attention to detail – home inspectors are thorough and meticulous, taking into account every aspect of a property and seeking to identify all hazards for the safety of homeowners
• Customer service – since home inspection can be complex and confusing, home inspectors create a comfortable experience for clients by developing rapport with them, addressing all of their inquiries, and promptly troubleshooting issues

It’s more than a home inspection. It’s about finding your home. At Pillar To Post, we believe home inspections are an important step in every home ownership story. During your inspection, you’ll learn where to find the water shut-off valves. When the roof might need to be replaced. How the fixtures function. And so much more.
