Everyday Home Inspections

Maryland follows the EPA’s radon action level of 4.0 pCi/L, but it’s largely voluntary at the state level. Montgomery County, though, takes it further! If you’re selling a home there, you must test for radon before closing, and landlords must also test rentals. If the level hits 4.0 or higher, mitigation is required. So, while the EPA sets the baseline, Montgomery County ensures action is taken!

As the U.S. economy continues to strengthen heading into 2026, the housing market is gaining momentum. Lower interest rate stabilization, pent-up buyer demand, and increased new construction are driving more real estate transactions across the country. With more homes being built and sold, one thing is certain: the demand for qualified home inspectors is rising.

Every home purchase requires a thorough inspection. Buyers want protection. Sellers want smoother closings. Real estate agents want dependable professionals who can keep deals on track. As transaction volume increases, the need for trained, licensed home inspectors grows right along with it.

In many markets, inspectors are already booking days in advance. As activity accelerates in 2026, opportunities will expand for new inspectors entering the field. This creates a strong career pathway for individuals seeking independence, flexibility, and earning potential in a service-based industry that remains essential regardless of market cycles.

At Everyday Home Inspector Training, we prepare students with real-world knowledge, field experience, and the confidence to succeed from day one. Our comprehensive program covers standards of practice, structural systems, roofing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, report writing, and hands-on ride-alongs with licensed professionals.

Economic growth fuels housing activity—and housing activity fuels opportunity for home inspectors. If you’re looking to enter a stable, growing profession in 2026, now is the time to start your training and position yourself ahead of the demand.
