State guide
Georgia
Georgia does not currently show a state home-inspector license or registration program on Georgia.gov’s professional licensing guidance or the Secretary of State’s licensing systems. Georgia’s Attorney General instead publishes consumer guidance telling buyers to check local business licenses, court records, and trade-association membership when choosing a home inspector.
