[Withdrawn 7/11/2016]
General Information
| Action Summary |
The Certified Home Inspector program is a voluntary regulatory program administered by the Board for Asbestos, Lead, and Home Inspectors. Chapter 411 of the 2015 Virginia Acts of the Assembly, which was a result of HB 2103, requires anyone who conducts a home inspection on a new residential structure to be certified by the Board and to have successfully completed a training module developed by the Board in conjunction with the Department of Housing and Community Development. The training module must be based on the International Residential Code component of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code. Certification would become mandatory for those individuals who wish to conduct a home inspection on new residential structures.
The Board is required to develop regulation to implement Chapter 411 of the 2015 Virginia Acts of Assembly for implementation on July 1, 2016. The Act further requires the Board to develop the training module prior to July 1, 2016, and make such training module available for use in accordance with this Act. |
