For your information..

After October 1, 1996, any person who inspects residential buildings for compensation must be licensed by the N.C. Home Inspector Licensure Board. However, you are not required to have a home inspector's license when performing your duties as a licensed real estate agent.

Residential buildings include single and multi-family dwellings, townhouses, condominiums and manufactured housing (mobile homes). Excluded under the law are apartments with more than four units, hotels, motels, and other nonresidential commercial buildings.

For clarification or further information, contact the N.C. Home Inspector Licensure Board, P.O. Box 26387, Raleigh, N.C. 27611.
