The American Society of Home Inspectors® (ASHI®) is the premier home inspection association in North America. Founded in 1976, it was the first organization to create a Standard of Practice and Code of Ethics for home inspectors. It is also the only home inspection organization that is certified by the National Commission of Certifying Agencies (NCCA). That means ASHI® is truly certified by a third party. The requirements to become an ASHI® Certified Inspector (ACI) ® are stringent and have to be reviewed every few years. Additionally, ASHI® Inspectors and Certified Inspectors must take and pass the National Home Inspectors Exam (NHIE®), a psychometrically designed test. When using an ASHI® inspector, clients and Realtors® can have the confidence that ASHI® is THE standard in the profession.
