Professional Affiliations
All Pillar To Post Franchisees are members of accredited professional associations – either ASHI (American Association of Home Inspectors) or NAHI (National Association of Home Inspectors) in the United States, or CAPHI (Canadian Association of Property and Home Inspectors) in Canada. Franchisees often join local associations in addition to the national players in order to develop local expertise with a professional peer group.
Why are Pillar To Post Franchisees members of these associations?
- Standards of Practice
All Pillar To Post home inspections must be conducted according to the standards of practice of one of these associations unless legislated otherwise within the jurisdiction of operation. This requirement not only speaks volumes to consumers about our credibility, but also helps protect inspectors and referring agents from the liability of unrealistic expectations from clients.
- Referrals
ASHI, NAHI, and CAPHI are highly regarded by consumers, who often use their websites and referral services to find an inspector. By joining these associations, Pillar To Post Franchisees are included in their referral programs.
- Technical Expertise
As members of these associations, Pillar To Post Franchisees have access to a vast amount of local or regional technical knowledge and expertise.
- Peer Group Collaboration
By joining an association of peers, Pillar To Post franchisees can assure themselves that they are working to the standard of care of their profession within their area of operation.
