A Certified Master Inspector (CMI®) is the highest professional designation in the home inspection industry. To earn this title, an inspector must meet strict requirements that go far beyond basic licensing or certification.

A Certified Master Inspector has:

• Proven experience – typically many years and thousands of inspections completed.

• Advanced education – continuous training to stay current with building practices and safety standards.

• Commitment to excellence – following the industry’s highest code of ethics and standards of practice.
