Advancing ASHI’s Mission, Together

As the Executive Director of the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI), I am privileged to witness the dedication, expertise, and passion that drive our members and this incredible organization. Every conversation, partnership, and initiative reminds me that ASHI is more than just a society—it is a thriving, evolving community committed to excellence in the home inspection profession.

A Year of Transformation: Listening, Learning, and Improving

Over the past year, ASHI has embraced bold transformation. One of our most significant undertakings has been the transition to a new database and website—a critical step toward enhancing our member experience and modernizing our engagement with our community.

We understand this process has not been without challenges. Your feedback has been invaluable in guiding improvements, and we remain committed to refining these tools to serve you better. We aim to create a user-friendly, dynamic platform that empowers home inspectors with resources, connections, and timely updates.

Growing Our Reach: A Vibrant Social Media Presence

ASHI’s social media presence thrived between February and April 2025 (the most recent data I have on hand based on our Reporter print schedule). Our audience across platforms now approaches 20,000 followers, with LinkedIn gaining more than 100 new followers during this period alone.

But this growth is more than numbers—it’s about building meaningful connections with current and future members.

We’ve focused on creating timely, member-centric content by:

Sharing troubleshooting tips for navigating the new website and highlighting new features.

Promoting educational opportunities and industry resources.

Strategic social media collaborations with trusted industry partners like InspectorPro and Easy Home Inspector Marketing have highlighted new tools, insights, and benefits available to our member community.

The introduction of Postcards from the Field on social media has showcased the real-world humorous moments our members encounter to a broader audience.

Celebrating Member Voices: Why They Love ASHI

Looking ahead, we’re excited to expand our storytelling by featuring ASHI members sharing what they love most about being part of this organization. These social media spotlights will allow members to share their personal experiences, professional pride, and the value they find in ASHI’s community.

By amplifying your voices—in your own words—we hope to inspire future inspectors, foster connection, and celebrate the incredible spirit of ASHI membership.

Building on Momentum

As we move forward, our focus remains clear:

Continue to strengthen partnerships that bring
added value to our members.
