Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is a franchise and why should I choose franchising?
Franchising is a business model that offers a way for aspiring entrepreneurs to start a business without taking as many risks. It involves a mutual agreement between two parties: the franchisee (the entrepreneur) and the franchisor (the established company). With this, the franchisee gets to start and grow a business using the franchisor’s brand and proven business model, giving them a significant advantage over starting an independent business.
2. How should I evaluate a franchise?
If you’re interested in joining a franchise, you should carefully look at their investment costs, support structure, and overall brand. Investment costs include the franchise fee, start-up costs, and ongoing fees, such as royalties and other monthly fees. Support structure is important (that’s why you join a franchise!) so carefully consider how large their support staff is and what you get for the cost. Finally, determine if it’s a brand worth investing in. You’ll want to look at the franchise’s recent awards and rankings, growth potential and franchise owner testimonials to make an informed decision.
3. How do I start a home inspection business?
To start a home inspection business, you’ll need to establish your business entity, meet all state requirements, get trained and certified in performing inspections (and licensed if required), and obtain insurance. Whether you start an independent business or join a franchise, these steps are required; however, a franchise can help you navigate all the steps to starting your home inspection business.
4. What are the advantages of starting a home inspection business?
Starting a home inspection business offers numerous advantages including huge market potential, low upfront costs (no storefront or inventory), and potential for high-profit margins. Home inspection business owners typically generate income with every inspection, and the market is not expected to slow down anytime soon. People continue to buy and sell properties, making home inspection an essential industry and offering long-term stability and growth potential for entrepreneurs.
5. How much does a WIN Home Inspection franchise cost?
Owning a home inspection franchise with WIN Home Inspection can be a rewarding and profitable venture with no hidden costs. Investing in a WIN Home Inspection franchise includes the initial franchise fee, equipment cost, marketing and training costs, insurance premiums, and additional funds for various purposes.

6. How much does a WIN home inspector make?
A WIN Home Inspection franchise owner can make a generous income, with the average gross revenue standing at $244,682 in 2023 (FDD 2025), approximately five times the average earnings of home inspectors in the U.S. However, it’s important to understand that these earnings can vary depending on several factors, including the location, owner’s experience level, number of available inspection slots in the schedule, and the price charged for each inspection. Despite these variables, WIN Home Inspection franchise owners have demonstrated the potential to earn significantly more than their industry counterparts by offering the widest range of essential services to clients, helping them generate steady income year-round. Owning a WIN franchise can be a lucrative business move, providing opportunities for substantial income while offering crucial services to home buyers, sellers, homeowners, and real estate agents in their community.
