The article implies to the unsuspecting reader that we NET 100% of our GROSS. The writer doesn't have a clue about business costs and operational fees.

Those same home inspection insiders that created the Super Inspector, have created an H5 for them to teleport to and from forensic scenes.

There are estimated to be 16,000 home inspectors in the United States, roughly one for every 19,000 people. The cost of an average home inspection tends to be $225-$300 depending on your location. The price for a 20 year old 2,000 foot home inspection in San Francisco will be much higher than one in Guntersville, AL. One trend that will usually hold true is the cost will usually run about .2% of the selling price of the home: $150K home - $300, $500K home - $1,000. The industry average in 2007 was 171 inspections per year - so to answer your question. The average income of a standard \"legacy\" traditional visual home inspector is $45,000.

Hmmmmmmm, so why will you use set pricing again? Oh that's right, you feel that is discriminating.

Well, if $45K per year is enough for you, by all means, continue to base your fees on the sales price. . .
