National Property Inspections

The American dream is alive and well at National Property Inspections (NPI). Our franchise owners love what they do for a living. They play a vital role in the real estate community, advising home buyers and investors on their property's condition, while building a valuable business for themselves. In business since 1987, we now have over 265 franchise owners in the U.S. and Canada, yet we still maintain a friendly, family-like supportive atmosphere throughout the company. (In Canada, NPI is marketed as GPI (Global Property Inspections)

"This has been a remarkable business for us. We have had success in other ventures over the years, but our NPI franchise gives us the greatest sense of accomplishment."
--Andy & Donna Michaels, NPI Franchise Owner





“NPI gave me an excellent start with a new business and they provided the tools to begin my business. The training gave me at least a 1-year head start over anyone starting a business without the NPI program.”

“We jumped into this with both feet. Carol stays in the office and takes care of things here. I go out and do the inspections. NPI has been our full-time job from the very beginning, for us it was a sink or swim proposition. Owning my own business has always been a dream. Our drive comes from the pursuit of dreams.”
