HomeTeam Inspection Service is a privately held U.S. home inspection franchise company founded in 1993 (per most sources; some cite 1992) and headquartered in Milford. The company franchises a network of 200+ independently owned and operated locations across 35+ U.S. states and Ontario, Canada, providing residential and commercial property inspections to home buyers, home sellers, real estate professionals, condo associations, and commercial property investors.

Revenue model

1. Home Inspection Services: HomeTeam generates revenue through one-time home inspection fees charged per inspection. Prices vary based on property size, location, and services selected. The company offers multiple service tiers (Essential, Preferred, Ultimate packages in some markets) and add-on inspections such as radon, mold, termite, sewer scope, and lead testing. This is the primary revenue stream.
2. Specialty Inspection Add-Ons: Additional revenue is generated from ancillary inspection services bundled or added to standard home inspections, including asbestos testing, energy audits, four-point inspections, indoor air quality testing, lead testing, mold inspection, radon testing, septic evaluations, sewer scoping, storm damage assessments, sprinkler inspections, water testing, wind mitigation inspections, manufactured home certifications, and aging-in-place inspections.
3. Franchise Fees and Licensing: HomeTeam Inspection Service operates as a franchise business. Revenue is derived from franchise fees and licensing arrangements with independently owned and operated franchise locations across North America.
