Oregon Home Inspection Guide
Free reference on Oregon home inspection law, every fact dated and cited to the source statute
This guide tracks Oregon home inspector certification, licensing fees, exam details and the 2025 wildfire rule changes (SB 83), citing each fact to its statute or agency source with a verification date, like ORS 701.445(1) for the two-step certification requirement. It calls out where official documents contain drafting errors, like an OAR cross-reference to the wrong subsection, and separately tracks which of Oregon's jurisdictions have actually adopted the R327 wildfire code versus jurisdictions with no record at all. Where a number isn't confirmed against rule text, the guide says so instead of estimating.
What holds up
- +Every fact carries its own citation and verification date instead of one blanket disclaimer
- +Flags drafting errors in official state documents, like a misdirected OAR cross-reference
- +States 'no data found' rather than guessing when a number isn't traced to rule text
Mind the limits
- −Covers Oregon only, so it's no use for inspection rules in any other state
- −Some figures (like R327 adoption records) are explicitly incomplete for 41 jurisdictions
