Ohio Home Inspectors Insurance Minimums

Ohio Home Inspection General Liability Insurance Requirements

  • Ohio requires every licensed home inspector to maintain a comprehensive general liability insurance policy or a commercial general liability insurance policy.
  • Coverage Limits: $100,000 per occurrence and $300,000 aggregate limit
  • The home inspector’s insurance policy must cover the loss, damage, or expense resulting from an act that occurred while the home inspector was inspecting the location.

Ohio Home Inspection E&O Insurance Requirements

  • As a home inspector in Ohio, you are not required to carry Errors and Omissions Insurance unless you perform termite/wood destroying insect inspections. If these inspections are performed, $100k of E&O coverage is required with the Ohio Department of Agriculture listed as a certificate holder.

Is E&O Insurance for Home Inspectors in Ohio Required?

While the state of Ohio does not require home inspectors to carry General Liability insurance, protecting yourself, your business and assets by carrying the proper insurance is the prudent thing to do.

Beyond the requirements of the state, carrying home inspector insurance that combines General Liability and Errors & Omissions can not only differentiate yourself from your competitors but also protect your assets and business from potential liabilities and lawsuits. Operating as a home inspector in the state of Ohio without Liability and E&O insurance is like driving without a seatbelt. You might be the best driver on the road, but you don’t know who is on the road with you just like you can’t predict the behavior of a home buyer who is making the biggest investment of his or her life. Home inspectors in Ohio conduct many home inspections per year; each of these inspections has the potential for liability exposure. Without the protection of Liability and E&O insurance, you’re taking a risk and potentially setting yourself up for a financial burden.
