Hotest market in the US for home sales. This is a Home inspection company that we started in 2015. It has grown every year.
Our multiple County franchise has another franchisee in it and they are doing over $1,000,000 in sales annually with multiple inspectors. We were well on our way to reach that goal but health set backs are forcing us to sell.
We have a fully logoed 2015 Ford Transit service truck loaded with ladders, tools and testing equipment. We offer Radon testing and have meters included and we also offer Septic inspections and are including the septic inspection equipment. Radon testing generates 100,000 dollars, Septic generates 120,000 dollars and there are many other revenue streams available in this business.

Why I Love My Franchise
This franchise has been profitable from day one. This was the best investment l ever made. I own a Bar Restaurant and Construction Company. Both of these companies took many years to return my investment. I never thought I would of ever invested in a franchise, but all the negative thoughts were put to rest with the wonderful team at Pillar to Post and their marketing and start up assistance. We had business the first day and never looked back
About Pillar To Post Home Inspectors
Pillar To Post Home Inspectors is North America’s largest home inspection franchise, providing residential property inspections along with specialized services such as radon testing and septic inspections. The brand serves home buyers, sellers, homeowners, realtors and institutional buyers, producing inspection reports that support real estate transactions across the US and Canada.
Founded in 1994 and franchising from the outset, Pillar To Post operates more than 450 locations and is part of FirstService Brands, the parent group behind CertaPro Painters, California Closets, Paul Davis and Floor Coverings International. Units run on an executive model: the owner is a full-time operator who builds and manages a local team of inspectors rather than performing inspections personally.
The business is home-based and territory-protected, built around proprietary systems including the OnePoint inspection platform, the PTP360 visual tool and a Salesforce-based CRM. Inspections follow standardized practices and formatted reporting the brand developed to bring consistency to a once-unregulated industry.
Franchisee Support
Pillar To Post's training program, Foundations for Success, runs across 11 weeks in four phases and opens with 90-120 hours of self-paced online study; the FDD documents 162.5 hours of classroom and 191 hours of on-the-job training. Each owner is paired with a personal business coach and regional directors for ongoing guidance, attends an annual brand conference, and works on the proprietary OnePoint platform and a Salesforce-based CRM. Resale buyers should confirm with Pillar To Post what onboarding and OnePoint system access transfer to incoming ownership.
Brand Accolades & Awards
Pillar To Post is consistently the highest-ranked home inspection brand on Entrepreneur's Franchise 500, with recognition continuing into the 2026 list (#313 overall in 2022). It has also appeared on Entrepreneur's Top Franchises for Veterans (2025), earned Franchise Business Review Top 50 recognition for franchisee satisfaction, and placed on the Franchise Gator Top 100 (#32 in 2021). For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the specific territory's local reviews and realtor relationships.
Industry / Market
The US home inspection industry is worth roughly $3 billion and is closely tied to residential real estate activity. Demand is steady because most home purchases include an inspection, with surveys indicating the large majority of buyers commission one before closing, making the category recession-resistant relative to discretionary services. As a people-centered professional service, home inspection has also been largely insulated from automation. For resale buyers, local demand tracks the transaction volume of the territory's housing market and its realtor referral network.
Ideal Owner
Pillar To Post suits a full-time operator who wants to build and lead a team rather than carry out inspections personally. The executive model rewards owners who are sales- and marketing-minded, comfortable recruiting and managing inspectors, and skilled at developing realtor and referral relationships. Industry experience is helpful but not required; backgrounds in business, sales, real estate investing or military leadership tend to fit well. Strong local networking and a focus on service consistency matter more than technical inspection skill.
