Step 1:  Congratulations on completing the first step! You have made the wise decision to build a SAFERhome certified home or project.

Step 2:  Register as a SAFERhome member.

Step 3:  Fill out the pre-registration form for your project and mail it together with your pre-registration payment to SAFERhome.
Note: Where applicable, to safeguard add the following clause to your builder's/developer's or real estate contract "subject to proof of SAFERhome certification".

Step 4:  Contact our knowledgeable staff for help or any questions. (Your pre-registration entitles you to technical and other support, as well as exposure for your project on our website.)

Step 5:  Build your home(s) / project(s).

Step 6:  Contact one of our SAFERhome certified building inspectors to set up a time for the inspection. (Ideally, inspections are done before dry-walling.)

Step 7:  Once the inspection is passed and the per unit fee is paid, the inspector will register your home(s)/unit(s) with the SAFERhome Central Registry Office.

Step 8:  The SAFERhome certificate and registration numbers for each home(s)/units(s) will be sent.

Step 9:  All home(s)/unit(s) are now listed in our registry database. This searchable database is available to purchasers and Realtors searching for SAFERhome certified properties.

Step 10:  For builders/developers: start expanding your reputation as a builder who sells homes that look better, work better and are worth more!
