Sampled — shipped under file-level sampling, not individually fact-checkedcommunity attestations: 0✓ / 0✗
Steps
Go to https://dos.ny.gov/licensee-search and confirm 'Home Inspection' is listed among the searchable license/registration types
Search by unique ID/registration number at https://appext20.dos.ny.gov/lcns_public/id_search_frm if you have it
Or search by name at https://appext20.dos.ny.gov/lcns_public/lic_name_search_frm (last name, first name, optionally city/zip/county)
Treat a 'no results' response as unlicensed/inactive — the tool explicitly limits results to active licenses only
Known gotchas
No downloadable dataset or REST API is published alongside this tool — it's a hosted form (appext20.dos.ny.gov) meant for manual, one-record-at-a-time lookups
Only active licenses are searchable; you cannot confirm past or expired licensure history through this tool
