HomeTeam Inspection Service

Owning a HomeTeam Inspection Service franchise is one of the most accessible and scalable paths to business ownership in the booming home services sector—no experience in home inspection, construction, or real estate required. If you're entrepreneurial, driven, and ready to take control of your future, HomeTeam offers a turnkey system that empowers people from all professional backgrounds to launch, grow, and lead a successful inspection business with confidence.

We’ve designed our franchise model to remove common barriers to entry. You don’t need technical knowledge, trade skills, or prior experience in the home industry. HomeTeam provides comprehensive, start-to-finish training at our corporate headquarters, where you'll learn the fundamentals of the business—from understanding inspection standards to hiring and managing a team, mastering sales, and marketing, leveraging technology, and delivering exceptional customer service. After initial training, our dedicated Franchise Business Coaches continue to work alongside you, offering personalized guidance as your business evolves. We also offer ongoing education, field visits, webinars, and peer networking opportunities to keep you informed and growing.

Starting a HomeTeam franchise is straightforward and financially approachable. A standard territory is $55,000 and a premium territory is $65,000, each paired with a $14,800 all-inclusive startup package that covers all the tools, technology, equipment, and branding you’ll need to launch with your first team. We also provide assistance with franchise funding, helping you find the capital you need through strategic lending partners familiar with our model.

One of HomeTeam’s standout advantages is our team-based approach to inspections. While traditional home inspectors operate as solo owner-operators—often limited by time and capacity—HomeTeam franchises run multiple inspectors as part of a coordinated team. This drastically reduces the time required per inspection (usually under 90 minutes), increases scheduling flexibility, and allows you to serve more clients per day. The result: higher revenue potential, better customer satisfaction, and a strong competitive edge in your market.

Our fee structure is designed with the franchisee in mind. Unlike most franchise systems that profit from every support service, HomeTeam’s only profit center is the 6% royalty, which actually decreases as your business grows—dropping as low as 4% based on your revenue tier. All other costs, including the 3% National Advertising Fund, the $100 monthly tech fee, the $229 digital marketing fee, and the industry-low $3.20 per-inspection report-writing software, are pass-through expenses that we negotiate as a system to keep your operating costs lean and predictable.

HomeTeam also opens doors for you with built-in credibility. We have national partnerships with some of the largest and most trusted real estate organizations in the country, including Keller Williams Realty International and Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices. These partnerships provide access to agent networks and referral channels from day one, making it easier to build relationships and gain traction in your local market.

If you need inspiration, just look to our founder, Paul Spires. He started HomeTeam with nothing more than a vision and a relentless work ethic—and over time, built one of the largest and most respected home inspection companies in the nation. Paul’s story is proof that with the right system, the right support, and the right mindset, anything is possible. His journey is the foundation of our franchise opportunity and a powerful reminder that this business is designed for people just like you—those with ambition, determination, and a willingness to follow a proven path.

With more than 200 successful territories across the U.S., HomeTeam continues to grow by helping entrepreneurs succeed in an industry with stable demand and incredible growth potential. Home inspections are essential to nearly every real estate transaction, and HomeTeam’s efficiency, professionalism, and proven model make us the preferred choice for agents and homebuyers alike.

This is more than a business—it’s a path to financial independence, personal growth, and the chance to lead a team in a respected and recession-resistant industry. With unmatched training, ongoing support, scalable systems, and a business model that lets you work on your business instead of in it, HomeTeam is ready to help you build something truly rewarding. You can be the next great success story—just like Paul.
