An independent home inspector can perform
up to roughly 500 inspections per year. ASHI's most current
Business Operations Study published in 2005, showed that full-time
inspectors do an average of 222 inspections per year at an
average inspection fee of $318. At $318 per inspection, 222
inspections would result in a gross income of $70,596. These
numbers include full and part-time home inspectors.
Performing
two home inspections in a day is comfortable for a professional
practitioner. A full-time inspector would typically
do 300 to 400 inspections per year. Average inspection fees
in 2009 are roughly $350. Inspectors performing 350 inspections
per year can gross $122,000.
