Default largest multi-inspector firm in the United States

Hello Folks,
Doing some research and was just wondering...Can anyone list the 3 largest multi-inspector firms in the United States? I'm not referring to franchises like Pillar to Post, Amerispec, etc. I am referring to one company with multiple inspectors. Up here in Canada, I would have to say that Carson Dunlop is the largest multi-inspector firm.
Thanks in advance!

USinspect is far and away the largest, I know #2 used to be Tiger up in New England, there are several around the country that could be in the top 5 (15-20 inspectors)

The largest multi-inspector firms are the states of Texas, Kansas, and North Carolina.


The inspectors all work for the applicable state Realtor association.

I think WIN and USInspect both are franchises.

Countrywide in my area had seven inspectors a couple of years ago. Not sure where they stand now.

There was one near me that had 30 but they fell apart a few years ago. I've heard they're back at 10 now.

WIN is certainly a franchise but I don't believe USinspect is one

So they say.

They lost a lot of inspectors within the last two years.

Either way, they are indeed a big company.

James is correct again. However, if Cap and Trade passes, the feds will be doing all of the home inspections, and all state licensing rules, regs, laws will all be out the window.................... Then, we will be working for the federal government, if we so choose to do so.
