Our Mission
Our mission is to unite and equip the community of independent home inspection companies to revolutionize the home inspection experience for consumers and real estate brokers, powered by a modern technology platform.
Our Story
iGo was founded in 2019 by three entrepreneurs with one idea: to unlock the full value of home inspections for property owners, and to do that by delivering technology and services to help home inspectors become world class.
John Russell and Chad Hett met in 2017 when John was CEO of Green Home Solutions, a franchise focused on the environmental health of homes, and Chat Hett was co-founder of Elite Group Inspection Professionals. They later joined up on a mission to help Chad propel his business – already the largest independent home inspection firm – to the next level by enhancing customer experience for home owners and the professionals that serve them through the deployment of better systems and services. They achieved 30% growth in the first year, ultimately driving nearly 100% growth over the next 3 years.
Our Core Values
Authentic
We are our candid selves. We are direct and honest. We pursue healthy debate to reach clarity and to achieve the best outcomes through input from all participants. In turn, we respect and appreciate the diverse, distinctive personalities and perspectives that make up our community.
Daring
We are hard-charging with ambitious goals. We are not afraid to take risks and learn from our mistakes, but we are not reckless. We view failure as learning. We jump in and tackle what needs to be done, sometimes outside of our comfort zone. We take uncharted and unconventional paths to bring our vision to life.
Enjoy Life
We are passionate about enjoying our whole life - both work and home. We believe the holistic well-being of a person brings out their best work. We promote work-life balance and sustainable work patterns. We embrace opportunities to share joy and humor with others in our community. We have fun.
Empowerment
We open doors for people to take ownership and excel. We invest in our internal and external communities to help them reach their potential for achievement and prosperity. We lead through vision and example, rather than through management and control. We respect and listen to one another, guided by the belief that valuable perspective comes from all parts of a team.
Our Social Purpose
We apply our passion for building thriving communities well beyond the home inspection industry. Leading and serving in our communities is simply what we do. And so, we are active agents of positive transformation in every community that we are a part of.
We believe that our communities can be strong only if all members of our community are strong. We work to support all others, no matter their socioeconomic status, religion, race, gender, nationality, age. We celebrate the diversity of our community and we welcome people into our community from all walks of life. We embrace the whole community, and we don’t leave anyone behind.
We believe that growth of a community can only be achieved when the individuals in the community are healthy – mentally, physically, and emotionally. We seek to bolster the individual and collective health of the people who make up our community.
