Inspection is a personally and financially rewarding profession. You’ll make a positive impact on your community, and you’ll utilize some of the skills you’ve worked to cultivate in your previous career. But as a Carson Dunlop franchise owner, you’re more than an inspector, you’re a small business owner. Owning a business takes drive, passion, and a growth mindset unique to entrepreneurship.

Think you have what it takes to become an inspector and small business owner? Here are some of the traits that make you an ideal candidate:

• Highly self-motivated
• Strong leadership skills
• Growth-oriented
• Enthusiasm for networking
• Excellent communication skills
• Community-driven
• Dedicated to ongoing education

TRAINING
Taught over the course of two weeks, Carson Dunlop’s Training Center fully prepares you to hit the ground running in your new inspection career. Our industry-leading curriculum combines both classroom and in-the-field training taught by experts in HVAC, electrical systems, plumbing, home structures, and more. Your training covers residential and commercial inspections, helping prepare you to deliver a wide variety of services.

With our small class sizes, you’ll get the individual attention you need to succeed in property inspection. We take care of the details so you can focus on the knowledge you need to start your business.

Week 1 of training will cover inspection techniques for every aspect of a property’s major systems and components. From roof to foundation, you’ll learn what makes a well-built home. Week 2 will include all aspects of your marketing and business plan. From contacting agents to polishing your digital presence, you’ll learn how to run your business and build your clientele.

In addition to our comprehensive two-week training course, you’ll get full access to the 400-hr Carson Dunlop School of Education online education program.
