Are you a home inspector trying to grow in a small market but struggling because your schedule is already full? In this episode of the Inspector Empire Builder podcast, Matt Williams talks with Allen Dicharry from Midland, Texas, about how he built a busy home inspection company in a smaller market, transitioned from nursing into inspections, hired his first inspector, protected his company culture, and expanded into commercial property inspections.

Allen shares how his background in healthcare helped him develop the “bedside manner” every great home inspector needs when working with nervous buyers, real estate agents, and stressful inspection reports. You’ll hear how his company became so busy that they started losing 20 to 30 inspections a month simply because they could not fit everyone on the calendar. This conversation is for home inspectors, multi-inspector firm owners, and inspection entrepreneurs who want to scale without making bad hires, damaging their reputation, or losing control of their business culture.

If you want to grow your home inspection business, hire better inspectors, serve realtors well, and find opportunities in commercial inspections, this episode gives you a real-world look at what it takes.

You’ll learn:

→ How Allen went from registered nurse to full-time home inspector in less than a year

→ Why communication and bedside manner matter so much in the inspection industry

→ How to think about hiring for culture instead of just technical skill

→ Why commercial inspections can create major opportunities in smaller markets.

→ The true cost of a bad hire

→ How to build a bench of future inspector candidates

→ Why referrals often beat online job ads

→ How commercial properties can change hands multiple times even when the tenant stays the same
