Home Inspectors for construction sector
A new job of licensed Home Inspector is to be created by the Government, following its manifesto commitment to change the home buying process in the UK.
The updated legislation will require that the majority of homes offered for sale on the open market in England and Wales will have to be marketed with a Home Information Pack. It is proposed that these packs will include a Home Condition Report - and only licensed Home Inspectors will be able to prepare Home Condition reports.
Around 7,500 Home Inspectors will be required to fill the expected demand and all must satisfy the national Occupational Standards for Home Inspectors and demonstrate that they have a detailed knowledge of how homes are constructed and a complete understanding of how building materials perform over time.
