Student Reviews
I worked in the city for 20 years in construction. Then I’d come home and work on my own side work, I was always hustling, working around the clock just to make ends meet. It was killing my body; I was missing my daughter’s events and I never wanted to do something like that. I needed a change, and that’s when I found AHIT.

The experience was great. The instructor kept us attentive & interested with his method of classroom instruction. I loved the vast knowledge I received in the field & in the classroom to make me a great home inspector. Thank you AHIT!

My experience was incredible. I have a doctoral level education in architectural history and have an MFA focused on history as well as preservation. I came to the course wanting to learn more about how a building lives and the process of inspections more than to do this as a career. However, your instructors were so informative, and made the process so exciting, I am earnestly considering it as an option.

AHIT has been in business since 1993 and has trained over 70,000
inspectors. We are the largest and most recognized training provider
in the country, and real estate agents and mortgage companies
recognize AHIT quality and know that you were trained properly. We
have the best instructors in the trade and are proud of having the
most graduates in the industry.
In addition to our classroom and online training, AHIT offers more
than our competitors as we teach you how to start and market your
business. We provide unlimited business and technical support to our
students and graduates. This service is free of charge for your
entire career as a Home Inspector, whether you are going through the
training or need support down the road, we are here to help.
Each state has different education requirements. Some states allow online training while others require some form of live classroom/field training. AHIT customizes its classes by state to ensure we meet all the education requirements.
Not long at all! Once you obtain proper certification/license and start marketing yourself you will gain momentum. Most students say it takes a few months. Usually after one year of hard work, your business will be up and running well. Some inspectors are doing five inspections or more per week after only a couple of months. It really depends how well you market yourself and how motivated you are to achieve success.
We have several payment options to accommodate our students, including a split payment option for live training as well as a form of financing. Please contact us for more information.
