Its annual convention featured two guest speakers,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ginoblefari/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=hometeam-inspection-service-celebrates-30-years-of-franchising-with-2023-annual-convention-2721552" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Gino Blefari</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/bobburg/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=hometeam-inspection-service-celebrates-30-years-of-franchising-with-2023-annual-convention-2721552" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Bob Burg</a>, words from President&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamrlong/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=hometeam-inspection-service-celebrates-30-years-of-franchising-with-2023-annual-convention-2721552" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Adam Long</a>, franchisee awards and more.“As we launch into the 2023 business year, we chose to focus the&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice">HomeTeam</a> annual convention on the process of building and growing a business,” Long explained. “We want our franchise owners to understand that, like climbing a mountain, building a business is a process. It will take more than just small bursts of motivation.”<h4>President Adam Long Reminded Owners of the Franchisor’s Commitment to the Network</h4>In one of his speeches, Long touched heavily on the difference between motivation and consistency. Referencing a book he recently read, titled&nbsp;Into Thin Air, he also discussed the nature of business-building — slow and steady.“While our convention weekend included a lot of motivation, we also wanted franchisees to take away the idea that consistency is just as important,” he explained. “All franchise owners in attendance had seen success for a sustained period of time, and it is important to recognize and celebrate the consistent efforts that led to these outcomes.”The rewards of building a successful HomeTeam business are quite clear, as demonstrated by the countless business people who attended the convention. In addition to reaffirming its commitment to the owners, the franchisor worked to illustrate the long-term journey that accompanies business ownership.&nbsp;“Like climbing Mt. Everest, building a business is a process,” Long said. “And it is likewise&nbsp; laden with complicated logistics, uncertain schedules and measurable risks. But, just like climbing the tallest mountain in the world, the rewards of building a successful business are immeasurable.”<h4>HomeTeam Celebrated Franchisees for Their Successes</h4>Through this continued commitment, and franchisees’ willingness to remain committed to their vision rather than clinging to sometimes-fleeting spurts of motivation, many successful business owners are developed. At its 2023 convention, HomeTeam presented a range of awards to celebrate the successes of the network in 2022.Numerous franchise owners were recognized for reaching or exceeding the 500 inspection mark in 2022. Additional franchisees exceeded 1,000 inspections, with some even surpassing the 1,500 and 2,000 marks. Rex Lewis of Anchorage, AKwas also celebrated for having the most inspections overall.“This year, we added a new award to recognize the franchisee who completed the most inspections in a single year,” Long said. “The winner,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/rex-lewis-70545225?miniProfileUrn=urn%3Ali%3Afs_miniProfile%3AACoAAAU6JnUBrcdtgWYwCgUzlbieIPvBFx0taLg&amp%3Blipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_search_srp_all%3B%2BB6yEBPqQomGMZk2L%2BJvyg%3D%3D&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=hometeam-inspection-service-celebrates-30-years-of-franchising-with-2023-annual-convention-2721552" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Rex Lewis</a>, is based in Anchorage. Not only did he conduct the most inspections of the system, but he did so, at times, in six feet of snow, negative-15-degree weather and on nights and weekends. One time, he even chartered a plane to fly to an inspection. He truly illustrates the value of commitment and consistency in a business.”Other awards, including the HomeTeam Award, Highest Average Transaction Fee Award,&nbsp; and awards that highlighted Relationships, Growth, Community, and Innovation were also announced.The 2022 Franchisee of the Year,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/bradlawler/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=hometeam-inspection-service-celebrates-30-years-of-franchising-with-2023-annual-convention-2721552" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Brad Lawler</a> of Louisville, KY, was also recognized for the way that he and his staff superbly represent the HomeTeam brand.<h4>The Start of a Great Year</h4>HomeTeam’s two guest speakers, Gino Blefari and Bob Burg, did a great job of reminding franchisees of the possibilities that lie ahead and the power of embracing the HomeTeam values.&nbsp;Blefari, who is the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices of America, served as a powerful reminder of the professional partnerships available to HomeTeam franchisees as they work to grow. With a unique background, he is also a wonderful reminder of what can be built with persistence and dedication.Bob Burg, the author of&nbsp;The Go-Giver, emphasized the value of giving more than you expect back.“One of our guiding principles at HomeTeam is a commitment to providing value,” Long said. “Bob Burg’s book touches on the power of giving, and his presence was a great reminder to the whole network that not expecting anything extravagant in return but still choosing to add as much value as possible can be a very strong approach.”The initial investment range to open a HomeTeam Inspection franchise is $50,100 to $76,800.

Own a HomeTeam Inspection Service Franchise

To the average homebuyer, the home inspection industry may feel somewhat standardized. But in reality, it’s highly fragmented, and a lack of regulation can create real uncertainty for clients, even if they don’t realize it at the moment. Major markets, including California, Georgia and Michigan, currently require zero licensing or insurance to perform home inspections, and this creates an incredibly unstable baseline for inspectors and clients alike.&nbsp;<a href="http://hometeamfranchise.com">HomeTeam Inspection Service</a>, the over-200-unit home inspection franchise brand, counteracts this with its own internal education requirements. For&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice/info">HomeTeam</a>, the certification is both a key trust marker for clients and a valuable resource for franchise owners looking to protect their own operations.“There are a lot of states where someone who doesn’t have a background in inspections, doesn’t have insurance and may not even have an official business entity can go do a home inspection,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-cook-a2810b8b">Matt Cook</a>, Director of Operations for HomeTeam. “This is troubling because the Standards of Practice are unclear. That’s what we do differently. We make sure that our franchise owners and their team members are not only trained to good standards, but that they’re trained above standard. That way, no matter what direction a state may end up going later on, everyone is already qualified and can continue operating like normal.”<h2>Inside HomeTeam’s Certification System</h2>At the corporate level, HomeTeam requires its owners and their employees to complete a standard training program through American Home Inspector’s Training (AHIT) , which includes a 120-hour educational pathway and an official exam.“We’ve really leaned into working with good training partners that provide value beyond just the training,” Cook said. “They provide the education, but they also help with information about insurance, trade memberships and those kinds of things.”“As a Franchisor, we require all of our inspectors to go through an industry leading home inspection training course and complete the National Home Inspector Examination, even if it is not required in their market,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/tcollinsmartin">Taylor Martin</a>, Director of Marketing. “It puts us one step ahead of our competitors, both in terms of the level of service we are able to offer and&nbsp; the trust every HomeTeam representative reinforces with our clients.”While licensing and certification is a key part of the onboarding process for HomeTeam inspectors, it’s not the only box they must check. HomeTeam conducts robust training in the early stages of onboarding, and as owners and team members grow over the course of their time with the brand, they’re able to develop skills in a safe environment.&nbsp;The team model, specifically, which pairs inspectors up, can even serve as a highly controlled internal training mechanism that develops apprentices safely and effectively without risking the client experience or the brand’s reputation.By ensuring every member of the team is thoroughly trained and certified, HomeTeam further strengthens the quality of the inspection and client experience. In a traditional model, the quality of the inspection hinges on a single inspector’s knowledge and performance on a given day. With multiple inspectors on site at each inspection, HomeTeam ensures one inspector’s “bad day” doesn’t create a bad inspection, and when both inspectors are certified, the homeowner benefits from double the expertise.“In a scenario where there are two inspectors on site, there’s double the coverage,” Cook said. “The franchise owner knows the inspection will be done and done well, and the buyer feels better knowing that there are twice as many eyes on the most important aspects of the home.”<h2>The Scalability and One-Stop Shop Advantage</h2>For a franchise owner, rigorous certification and ongoing industry development allow HomeTeam to stay at the forefront of the industry and confidently scale beyond basic home inspections into ancillary services like radon, pool and sewer scope inspections."When a potential client reaches out to HomeTeam, it’s a one-stop shop,” Martin said. “Our owners can coordinate all of the ancillary services, as well. Whether they hold that license or certification or know who to contact to contract that service out, One Call Does It All.”HomeTeam’s standardized training ensures convenience and reliability for clients and, in turn, a favorable market position for local owners. By clearly communicating the certification differentiator and delivering on the promise of a thorough, educational inspection, HomeTeam owners can also become the partner of choice for additional inspection services in their own communities.&nbsp;In addition to checking the certification box, so to speak, HomeTeam’s educational standards serve as a valuable, proactive business strategy. By enforcing rigorous, multi-layered standards across the country, HomeTeam protects the end user, elevates franchise owners and maintains its position as a leader in the industry.To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice.">https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice.</a>&nbsp;

For decades, the home inspection industry has been viewed as highly manual, requiring a clipboard, ladder and a single inspector for each hours-long inspection.&nbsp;<a href="http://hometeamfranchise.com">HomeTeam Inspection Service</a>, the 200-unit home inspection franchise, is shifting this paradigm with a modern, tech-enabled approach that drives efficiency, consistency and scalability without compromising the human aspects of the inspection process.“Historically, the vast majority of home inspectors have been averse to technology,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-cook-a2810b8b">Matt Cook</a>, Director of Operations. “The average inspector is 55+ years old and not especially interested in trading tried-and-true methods for new technologies. Over the last few years, though, we’ve seen a significant influx of technology, including tools like sewer scope cameras, drone footage for reviewing the state of the roof, and even report-writing software. Strategic implementation of these tools allows us to complete more efficient inspections while maintaining the level of thoroughness we expect.”<h2>The ‘Leading Edge’ vs. ‘Bleeding Edge’ Philosophy</h2>While&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice/info">HomeTeam</a> has embraced technology as a part of the home inspection process, from scheduling through the delivery of the inspection report, the brand’s measured approach to adoption supports healthy growth and truly smart implementation.“We like to say that we’re on the leading edge, not the bleeding edge,” Cook said. “We don’t implement technology for technology’s sake. Rather, we watch how rollouts go in the industry at large, then we build additional support to ensure that when we roll technology out, our systems are more efficient and deliver better quality. This allows us to stay at the forefront of the industry, balancing early adoption with execution that actually works.”<h4>Smart Scheduling</h4>One of the most impactful tech tools HomeTeam uses is its smart scheduler. Because HomeTeam offers more than just the standard whole-home inspection, it’s important that potential clients can accurately see availability for the specific services they need, including specialty inspections such as mold and sewer scope inspections.“All of the specialties and experience of each inspector within a team are stored in the scheduler,” Cook said. “So if someone is ordering an inspection and they indicate that they also need a radon test, for example, the scheduler will automatically dictate not just the next available slots but the next available slots with the team members whose experience best fits what that person needs for their specific home.”This addresses a key bottleneck and substantially simplifies the scheduling process, ensuring quick, easy and accurate booking for owners, teams and their clients.<h4>On-Site Tech</h4>Once on-site for the inspection, each HomeTeam inspector has access to a range of tools that enhance and support a thorough inspection.“HomeTeam has all of the latest technology as options for our franchise owners to use in their local markets,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/tcollinsmartin">Taylor Martin</a>, Director of Marketing. “Each team will be equipped with different tools depending on the demands of the specific inspection and any local regulations, like licensing for drones. Across the HomeTeam system, we have drones to help get a better visual of the roof, thermal imaging cameras to help detect any anomalies that could indicate moisture or poor insulation, and specialized cameras to get a visual of other hard-to-reach spaces, like in an attic or around a washer and dryer.”There are also tools available to help inspectors deliver a more thorough review of some of the most crucial areas of the home. Cook explained that some inspectors will leave disclaimers in the inspection report, noting that they were unable to fully inspect a certain area because it was too tight or unsafe.“Underneath the home is a great example of this. It may be ‘too tight’ or ‘too difficult,’” he said. “But that’s a crucial part of the home. There’s insulation, plumbing and the foundation. A client wants to know what’s going on under there. We have tools like remote-controlled cars with cameras and little robots that can go into those hard-to-inspect spaces and capture photos for the inspector to review.”While the technology required for each inspection will vary, having access to both the tools and guidance needed to integrate technology into the inspection process allows HomeTeam franchise owners to deliver a better, more thorough inspection experience for both their teams and clients.<h2>The Future of Home Inspection Franchising</h2>In a home inspection industry still shaped by solo operators and low-tech processes, HomeTeam is taking a more deliberate approach to innovation. The goal is to use technology only where it makes the inspection process stronger for franchise owners and customers.For franchise owners, that means having access to tools that support a broader inspection menu without making the process harder to manage. The smart scheduler helps match clients with the right services, while on-site technology can give inspectors a better view of areas that are difficult or unsafe to access.Together, those systems allow HomeTeam to bring a more modern operating model to a traditional trade. The brand is using technology to help franchise owners work more efficiently while maintaining the level of detail customers expect from a home inspection.To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice">https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice</a>. &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

Burnout is no longer an occasional workplace hurdle; it’s a chronic, largely structural, issue for those in corporate America.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.employee-monitoring.net/resources/employee-burnout-statistics-2026">Nearly 70% of professionals</a> report burnout symptoms in their current roles, and growing workloads, unclear expectations and lack of autonomy only drive that number up. Employees are checked out, and they’re ready for their next opportunity.&nbsp;<a href="http://hometeamfranchise.com">HomeTeam Inspection Service</a>, the 200-unit home inspection franchise, offers just this. The autonomy is there, expectations are clear and, maybe most importantly, the perks exist in the context of franchise owners building something for themselves.“I think a lot of burnout has to do with people being tired of the corporate environment and tired of being financially strapped for a job they don’t necessarily enjoy,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-cook-a2810b8b">Matt Cook</a>, Director of Operations. “Many people find themselves asking why they’re working so hard to benefit someone else. Franchising allows entrepreneurs to directly benefit from their hard work, and&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice/info">HomeTeam</a> has offered a path for multiple corporate escapees seeking this type of purpose and autonomy.”<h2>An Accessible Opportunity With Room to Grow</h2>The thought of “being one’s own boss” isn’t uncommon among those looking to leave their current roles. For many, though, the financial and knowledge requirements of business ownership feel like major deterrents.HomeTeam Inspection Service counters both objections with a relatively low initial investment and a well-established training and onboarding program. During the startup phase, which can be daunting, support is always available, and the end vision is clear.“I’ve had someone tell me that they took a job paying $40,000 per year because they couldn’t find anything else,” Cook said. “Through this experience, the whole family realized that they knew how to live on $40,000. They thought, ‘We can start a business. And even if we’re not making much money the first year, we know how to live on a budget, and in this case, we’re doing something for ourselves.’”Cook highlighted the story of a current HomeTeam franchise owner who was previously a chef.“He worked in a restaurant and was just tired of the industry,” he said. “It wasn’t good for having a family, and he didn’t feel healthy. He decided to open a HomeTeam, and it changed his life. He’s improved his health, has more time with his family, and is thriving as a franchise owner. Last year, he did around 1,000 inspections.”<h2>The Scalable Team Model</h2>For many, autonomy is a key way to counteract burnout. Rather than an “always-on” mentality that’s mandated by workplace culture, franchise owners are in control of how they work on their businesses. This is a primary draw for many new franchise owners; their hard work will deliver real returns.The model also gives owners a way to grow without having every dollar depend on their own hours in the field. Owners still have to stay involved, but as they build teams, the business can expand beyond what one person can do alone.“Our team-based model allows owners to build to a time where they can function as true business owners, focusing on high-level business demands and future growth planning while teams of inspectors serve as boots-on-the-ground representatives for the business,” Cook said. “By adding additional inspectors to the business and building up teams, a franchise owner can scale their revenue without a proportional increase in their working hours. Higher ROI does not require burnout-level time commitments.”Most franchise owners share a distinct turning point: when they realize their daily grind is no longer serving them, their lifestyles or their long-term goals. For many, this is the catalyst for a life-changing investment.For people navigating this shift, HomeTeam Inspection Service proves that entrepreneurship doesn’t have to mean trading one form of burnout for another. With a structured system designed for an executive ownership model and long-term scale, franchise owners can reclaim their time, autonomy and joy while building something truly meaningful for themselves and their families.To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice.">https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice.</a>&nbsp;

<a href="http://hometeamfranchise.com">HomeTeam Inspection Service</a>, the 200-plus-unit home inspection franchise, is coming to the Northern Virginia and D.C. markets, led by real estate professionals&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-sardo-35b85b7/">Michael</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/peter-sardo-313431290/">Peter Sardo</a> and their project manager,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahaholmes/">Hannah Holmes</a>. While Michael and Peter considered franchising a few years ago, a recent look at the&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice/info">HomeTeam</a> business model and interactions with the leadership team, combined with the synergies they saw with their existing business,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.openhousemediaco.com/">OpenHouse Media</a>, made this the right time to invest.“Peter has been serving the real estate industry for three to four years now,” Michael said. “He does real estate photography, listing photos, headshots for real estate agents — the whole gamut of media that agents use to help their clients sell their homes. We looked at HomeTeam several years ago and decided it just wasn’t the right time, but as his business started taking off, we thought it’d be a good add-on. The businesses can feed off of each other, and the HomeTeam brand and level of professionalism the Ohio team brings to the table impressed me.”After finalizing their decision to invest, the pair completed HomeTeam’s onboarding and training process and is now putting the finishing touches on the business as they prepare for an early April launch.<h2>Applying Previous Experience to the HomeTeam Model</h2>Each member of the team in Northern Virginia brings a unique set of skills, including a perspective on real estate.&nbsp;After 35 years spent working with real estate developers and general contractors, Michael brings transferable relationships and skills to the business that will help it thrive as it takes off.“My previous work wasn’t directly related to residential real estate, but the experience will transfer over,” he said. “I thought this would be a really interesting thing to do as I finalize my career. I’ll have something to do once I get out of the office and corporate environment to help me fly into retirement while helping Peter build a legacy.”With years of experience and a strong network in residential real estate, Peter has consistently considered how to expand his reach in the industry. Choosing the franchise model, rather than starting another business from the ground up, provided the scaffolding he needed for a smoother start.“At first, I thought, ‘Why don’t we just do it ourselves?’” he said. “But the benefits of franchising made it a really attractive option. The costs to open and manage things like marketing and legal are all taken care of with HomeTeam. Plus, everyone is very nice and supportive.”Hannah brings yet another perspective to the table. She earned her real estate license in 2021 and worked as a REALTOR® until 2025. After realizing she enjoyed the operations side of the business, she began working with OpenHouse.“It’s been a great experience, and stepping into this opportunity with HomeTeam is cool because I’ve been exposed to home inspections before,” she said. “I have a background with reading a ton of inspection reports with my clients during my time as a REALTOR®, and I’ll be able to bring that agent point of view to the HomeTeam operation.”<h2>Bringing the Team-Based Model to the Northern Virginia Market</h2>HomeTeam’s team-based model is a key differentiator for franchise owners across the country. It allows local teams to offer quicker, more efficient home inspections, often with faster booking turnaround times. This is an even bigger advantage in Northern Virginia, where shifts in government employment can directly impact the pace of the local real estate market.“We’re right outside of D.C., so homes turn over with a little more velocity here than they do in other locations because of government changes,” Michael said. “There’s no HomeTeam in Northern Virginia currently. I’ve had a home inspection here, and the inspector was a fine gentleman, but the HomeTeam level of professionalism doesn’t exist in our market right now. This is a great opportunity to set up a business that will be very good for Northern Virginia.”For the Sardos, the choice to invest in HomeTeam, specifically, was largely driven by the brand’s decades-long history, commitment to customer service and well-developed operational model. As they grow, being a part of a brand with a strong reputation and over 200 other locations across the country will serve as a valuable launchpad.<h2>The Vision for Service and Growth in Northern Virginia</h2>As the team prepares to officially launch the business, they’re focused on maintaining the same level of quality and service that has made HomeTeam what it is today.“We want to get out there and increase visibility while making sure we deliver the highest level of professionalism,” Michael said.&nbsp;“We want to make sure we’re delivering the quality product HomeTeam is known for, so our priority has been putting our team through a rigorous technical training program, including numerous supervised inspections."Having already onboarded their first support inspector, the team is aiming to complete a few hundred inspections and develop two full teams by the end of the year. For the Sardos, though, this is just the beginning.“The HomeTeam model is ‘One Call Does it All,’” Michael said. “We want to be that for our customers. We can help you take the listing photos and complete the inspection. We’re not going to bite off more than we can chew before we ensure this business is up and running smoothly, but we are looking at different ways to vertically integrate and become a truly full-service resource for the real estate community in Northern Virginia.”To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice.">https://1851franchise.com/hometeaminspectionservice.</a>&nbsp;
