From Builder to National Franchisee of the Year: Peter’s Journey with Jim’s Building Inspections

From Builder to National Franchisee of the Year: Peter’s Journey with Jim’s Building Inspections

In this episode of the Jim’s Podcast, we chat with Peter, National Franchisee of the Year for Jim’s Building Inspections across Australia and New Zealand.

Peter shares his journey from award-winning builder to franchise owner, what pushed him to step away from construction, and how he built a high-quality inspection business focused on integrity, education, and long-term outcomes for clients.

We discuss:

  • The mindset shift from builder to inspector

  • Why quality inspections matter more than ever

  • Apartment and strata risks most buyers overlook

  • Staged inspections, expert witness reports, and dispute prevention

  • What success inside the Jim’s franchise system really looks like

Whether you’re buying property, building a home, or curious about life inside a national franchise, this episode offers practical insights from someone who’s seen the industry from every angle.
