The Home Inspectors

What The Home Inspectors does

The Home Inspectors is a Texas-based residential inspection firm founded in 2010 and headquartered in Richardson, TX, operating across the Dallas/Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, and San Antonio metropolitan areas. The company delivers five core inspection services — home buyer, home seller, new construction, builder warranty, and home maintenance inspections — all performed by inspectors licensed by both the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) and the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA). All inspections include a complimentary Wood Destroying Insect report, on-site digital report delivery with photographs, and a lifetime subscription to the third-party HomeBinder home management platform. An AI-assisted Repair Pricer tool, delivered to real estate agents, provides zip-code-level repair cost estimates reviewed by human pricing experts as a buyer-inspection add-on.

The firm's commercial architecture is a straightforward transactional services model. Pricing is published and unit-based, scaling from $400 for homes up to 2,500 square feet to $740 for homes between 6,501 and 7,000 square feet, with no incremental add-on fees. Customers book through 24/7 online scheduling (igobooking.com), local market phone lines, or via referrals from a formalized Realtor Partner program that offers referring party indemnification and cobranded communications. Marketing is content-led: an extensive SEO-oriented blog, downloadable buyer/seller/realtor guides, and a Google-verified testimonial wall on the homepage. The company is privately held, with no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, or institutional ownership, and operates with a headcount in the 11-50 range across a single state.

Customer concentration is distributed across thousands of individual home buyers, sellers, new construction buyers, and existing homeowners in Texas, with no enterprise anchors or recurring contracts visible. The dual TREC/TDA licensing is a structural regulatory advantage that lets a single firm deliver both standard and termite inspections — a combination most competitors must subcontract. Growth signals are modest and organic: a 2022 Houston expansion completing four-metro coverage, sustained content marketing investment, and the incremental addition of the Repair Pricer AI tool. Revenue is not disclosed; triangulation from headcount, per-inspection pricing, and four-metro footprint places annual revenue in the low single-digit to low double-digit millions range with low confidence.
