BECOME A CERTIFIED PROPERTY ASSESSMENT PRACTITIONER

Property condition assessment, also known internationally as “home inspection”, or “property survey”, is one of the most exciting business opportunities in South Africa. SAHITA offers a certified professional qualification for South African Property Assessment Practitioners.

Property Assessment Practitioners include members of South Africa’s fast-growing independent home inspection industry; estate agents who want to provide a value-added service to their clients; municipal and statutory building inspectors; and insurance assessors.

The South African home inspection industry is especially suitable for small business and entrepreneurs because the prospects for growth are excellent, start-up costs are low and because a high level of personalised service will enhance the prospect of success.

SAHITA - what our past students say

SAHITA OFFERS 100% SOUTH AFRICAN BUILDING AND HOME INSPECTOR TRAINING

SAHITA is the first building inspection academy to equip South Africans with an all-round knowledge of South African building methods and South African building regulations and standards – including SANS 10400. SAHITA training combines detailing training on building compliance and building methods with practical knowledge on how to conduct a building inspection and compile an inspection report.

SAHITA was established in 2012 because the South African home inspection industry was completely unregulated and there were no benchmarks for training and accrediting home inspectors. HouseCheck, South Africa’s leading building inspection company (established in 2008), therefore pioneered the launch of SAHITA. SAHITA is now widely recognised for its excellent standard of training material which is fully compliant with South African building laws, regulations, standards and systems.
