It’s a well-known fact that consumers aren’t always willing to pay for the safety they need, and that’s one of the roadblocks you may face as you attempt to promote your business. However, many home inspectors have been successful at asking their city council members to pass laws that require yearly property inspections. They want to make property owners accountable for the safety and upkeep of their rental units. This is especially the case in college towns where rental units are more prevalent, but it really applies to any community.
Inspectors who have been successful at pursuing this avenue are reaping the financial rewards. They send the message to their council members that safety inspections are important and that they should be required annually. The end result is a win-win for everyone—better business for you and safer communities for people to live.
