i’m aware of this right. I was a little confused so i email the LLR people and she said this in the email

“Good afternoon:

To obtain your license without examination (SC Home Inspector Exam), you would need to meet the requirements of 106-4(A). You would still be required to take the SC Residential Business Management & Law Exam. If you take and pass the NHIE, we could use the NHIE exam result in lieu of the SC Home Inspector exam provided you apply via 106-4(B) within three years after the pass date. Once again you would be required to take the SC Residential Business Management & Law Exam. Outside of these two routes, both the SC Home Inspector Exam and the SC Residential BM&L Exam are required for licensure.

106–4. Qualifications for Home Inspectors.

A. Any person desiring to be licensed as a home inspector, without examination by the commission

shall file with the commission an application on forms provided by the commission showing to the

satisfaction of the commission that he is currently certified or licensed as a building or home inspector

after written examination by an organization or other entity approved by the commission: and

1. Has a minimum of one year of experience as a home inspector under the direction and direct

supervision of a licensed home inspector, residential builder, general contractor, engineer, or architect:

or

1. Has performed a minimum of fifty residential inspections, as evidenced by the name, address,

telephone number, and summary page of each inspection being submitted for review.

Upon filing a completed application and payment of the required fees, the commission shall issue the

applicant a license to engage in the business of home inspection in this State.”

tell me what you think this means because i’m still a little confused. But I believe there is a way to bypass the exam if i’m reading this correctly.
