Artificial intelligence is shaking things up across industries, but what does that mean for the world of home inspections? In this episode, we tackle the controversial question: Will AI replace our trusted human inspectors? Hear our thoughts on how AI can revolutionize the industry by automating tedious tasks like report writing and defect identification, all while enhancing customer experiences. We argue that this technological shift is an opportunity for inspectors to wield advanced tools, safeguarding the profession against becoming a low-cost, commoditized service.
What role do increasing regulatory requirements play in shaping the future of home inspections? We delve into legislative changes in states like Massachusetts and Florida and explore their impact on mandatory inspections. Hear tales of unexpected inspection challenges and gain insights into the booming demand for commercial property inspections, driven by a shortage of engineers. As we close the chapter, we reflect on the irreplaceable value of human inspectors despite the growth of remote technologies, affirming that the nuanced expertise of on-site evaluations remains a cornerstone of the industry.
