WIN Home Inspection - Franchise
America’s Most Advanced Home Inspection Brand
Strong brand and advanced systems help home inspection franchisees dominate in rebounding residential real estate market.
The housing slump is over. Home sales have been rocketing upward, and as buyers flood the market, huge opportunities are opening up not only for real estate agents, but also for home inspectors. Nearly 5 million homes sold in 2013, and according to the National Association of Realtors, 77% of buyers pay for a home inspection.
There’s just one problem: The demand for home inspectors is now outpacing the supply. When the recession drove part-time and unprofessional inspectors out of business, the WIN Home Inspection franchise did just fine, soaking up the available business during the downturn. Now that the real estate market is roaring back to pre-recession levels, WIN Home Inspection franchise owners have been gobbling up market share.
Home inspection franchises: a great post-recession business
WIN’s revenue has been growing sharply since 2010, and we are increasing our market share. As home sales continue to climb and gather steam, WIN expects strong revenue growth to continue.
Average revenue: Out of 189 franchised businesses in operation in 2016, 146 had at least three full years of operation by the end of 2016. Those 146 owners reported average revenues of $159,244 in 2016.
Outperforming the average: Of the 146 owners cited above, 33% (49 total) exceeded the average revenue figure. Those 49 owners achieved an average revenue of $259,010 in 2016.

The Home Inspection Market is Huge
Demand for services is huge. About 5 million homes were sold in 2013, and 77% of buyers paid for a home inspection, according estimates from the National Association of Realtors.
There’s just one problem: The demand for home inspectors is outpacing the supply. The recession drove part-time and unprofessional inspectors out of business. The WIN Home Inspection franchise did just fine, soaking up the available business during the downturn. Now that the real estate market is roaring back to pre-recession levels, WIN Home Inspection franchise owners have been gobbling up market share.
"The opportunity is great. I did some research the other day and learned there are 115,000 real estate agents and brokers in the state of Texas, but there are just 2,300 home inspectors. There aren't enough home inspectors to handle it all! That's why some inspectors get away with not having great customer service. But if you have a franchise and a system and are professional, you are set up for success." James Price, National Guard Veteran
"I'm training someone right now, and I'm stressing the importance of having empathy for people. You need a good personality. I think the technical skills can be learned, but the people skills can't. My worst fear about being a home inspector was that I wouldn't be able to do it right on the technical side. But I learned one step at a time and everything worked out well." The people at WIN are just great. You have really good support. All the different departments seem to have the correct set of skills. Steve Wadlington sets the franchise apart. He has the skills and personality of a great leader. WIN's marketing materials are excellent. The training is outstanding. WIN showed me how to get past the gatekeepers and how to get into the offices to meet the brokers. If you follow the process WIN sets you up with, it really works. As I learned things, I was able to grow my business in a down market. At this point, I'm in control of my own destiny and that's what I was looking for at this point in my life. Owning my franchise makes me part of the community. I know hundreds of people that I didn't know before in the real estate industry."Bert Welsh
