My name is Marshall. I’m a new inspector here in the Houston Tx area. I am looking for anyone on the forum that may be able to point me in the right direction. I decided against working for myself and finding a good company to work for. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
By the way, I am professionally licensed and have my own software and insurance.
Welcome Marshall!
I see you got your license just a little after me. I am the post right below this one. I would like to say that you might get more action by posting in a different section. I also posted my introduction in the General section & have received 1 response but more views.
I wish you much success!
The few ads I have seen from companies hiring inspectors are interested in talking to people with at least a few years of experience. I do wish you luck, but you may not have any choice but to go it on your own for a while.

The above is great advice. I am out everyday, meeting people, agencies, agents etc. I try At least 10 open houses both Saturday and Sunday. At 4 each morning I tweek my website some more, send emails, work on my sales pitch, map out places to go. Daycare, execute plan, daycare & family time. After the kiddo goes to bed, wife time. After she goes to bed, I continue my education via books & INACH & work with my report software, company procedures, policy, agreements etc.
Get organized, find the gas pedal & stand on it until you have accomplished your goal!
There are several multi-inspector firms in the Houston area, including Fox, and Bryan & Bryan. You will need to do your own vetting and may have to give up your own practice.
