As the keystone of professional conduct is integrity, the Members will discharge their duties with fidelity to the public, their clients, and with fairness and impartiality to all.

Independence Pledge

As a member of the Independent Home Inspectors Of North America (IHINA), I believe there is a potential or inherent conflict of interest when an inspector markets real estate agents with the intent of obtaining inspection referrals from those agents or when a real estate agent selling a house recommends only one or a limited number of home inspectors to a potential homebuyer.

I understand the primary mission of the Independent Home Inspectors of North America is to help promote consumer protection for homebuyers. This mission is to be carried out by: One) educating potential homebuyers to the potential or inherent conflict of interest when a real estate agent recommends, influences or controls the home inspector selection process; Two) working with state and / or provincial legislators to enact amendments to real estate broker / salespersons licensing laws, the purpose of such amendments would be to eliminate the control real estate agents have over the home inspector selection process for prospective homebuyers; Three) providing inspection clients with honest, accurate and non-bias inspection reports.

As an IHINA member, I pledge I will not actively solicit real estate agents with the intent of obtaining inspection referrals from those agents (this includes anyone who markets on my behalf.) I understand active solicitation includes giving "sales" presentations to real estate agents about my inspection service, rewarding or compensating agents for referring clients to me, producing any marketing material designed / aimed at agents rather than prospective homebuyers or allowing an agent to influence how I convey my inspection findings to my client. I understand handing out a business card to a real estate agent at an inspection site is not considered active solicitation. I understand that I reserve the right to accept client referrals from real estate agents; however, such referrals will not alter how I conduct my inspections or convey my inspection findings.

I understand that I will notify the IHINA Director when I no longer adhere to the mission of the Independent Home Inspectors of North America or if I actively solicit real estate agents with the intent to obtain inspection referrals from those agents. I understand the IHINA Director retains the sole right to terminate my membership for violating this pledge.
