Description

What if you could make more money from your home inspection business without cramming more inspections into your calendar? In this episode of the Inspector Empire Builder Podcast, Matt Williams sits down with Coy from BPI Inspections to break down how a solo home inspector built a premium home inspection brand, reached roughly a $900 average inspection ticket, and created service packages designed to move his company out of the price-shopping game. Coy shares how he transitioned from law enforcement into home inspections, why he decided to target the luxury real estate market, and how adding services like sewer scopes, mold testing, pool and spa inspections, thermal imaging, floor plans, and premium inspection packages dramatically increased the value of each client. They also dive into home inspection pricing strategies, raising prices without losing business, package psychology, premium branding, hiring a scheduler, improving the customer experience, marketing to both buyer and listing agents, and why successful home inspection companies need to think like marketing companies first. If you're a solo home inspector trying to increase your average ticket, charge premium prices, sell more ancillary services, or build a business that doesn't compete on price, this episode is packed with ideas you can apply. Highlights: → You’ll learn how Coy positioned BPI Inspections for higher-end homes and built a roughly $900 average ticket instead of competing with lower-priced home inspectors. → You’ll discover how three-tier and premium service packages can simplify the buying decision, increase ancillary service sales, and move customers toward higher-value home inspection options. → You’ll hear why Matt raised inspection prices by 25% while fully booked, what happened to demand afterward, and why testing your pricing can be one of the fastest ways to improve profitability. → You’ll also learn how hiring a scheduler, marketing to listing agents, creating a one-stop-shop inspection experience, and selling the value of your brand can help a solo home inspector grow without becoming a commodity.
