Build Your Future with ASHI

Welcome to the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI)! Whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned pro, ASHI is here to help you grow your skills, expand your network, and build a thriving inspection business.

How to Join ASHI: Step-by-Step Membership Process

Step 1: Email membership@ashi.org to let us know you’re ready to join. We’ll send you a link to the official ASHI Membership Application.

Step 2: Please complete and return the application using the email address linked to your business. Only one email may be used, which will serve as your official ASHI contact and database ID.

ASHI offers two payment options so pick what works best for you:

Directly select your preferred payment plan—either annual or monthly—within the application.

Once we receive your application, our team will input your information into our system and designate you as a Prospect on your way to becoming a member.

Why Is There a Monthly Payment Fee?

The $91 fee for the monthly dues plan helps cover the added cost of offering payment flexibility. It is about $7.58 per month on top of your regular dues.

Here’s why:

• Credit card fees average 4% per transaction, or about $1.80 each month.
• The remaining $5.78 helps offset the administrative costs of processing 12 monthly payments instead of one.

This fee does not generate profit for ASHI—it doesn’t even cover the full cost. Offering monthly payments is one way we support members who need flexibility, and we strive to keep this option as affordable as possible.

Step 3: Log In, create your profile, and complete the Standard Of Practice Module (SOP). Once you pass the SOP module, you will receive an invoice link in your email to complete your dues payment based on your selection in Step 2.

How to Renew Your ASHI Membership

Step 1: Please email us at membership@ashi.org to let us know you want to renew. If you’ve already logged into your ASHI profile, you can still access your account, but please note that member-exclusive areas will remain restricted until your renewal is complete.

Our team will email you a secure, customized link to complete your renewal quickly and easily.

Step 2: Log-in and you’ll have the opportunity to select a monthly or annual payment plan. Many members choose to switch to yearly dues for convenience and simplicity. Once your renewal is processed, you will have access to all benefits and all earned designations will be reinstated.
