Free Home Inspections

[Paul Pendley]

As both my wife and I are Veterans we have chose to do this for our service men and women.

Through the month of November any Veteran with a DD214 or an active duty family with the proper ID can have their potential home inspected for free.

Why are we doing this?

We appreciate your sacrifice and know how difficult it is to come up with the extra $$ with the salary of a soldier. My wife & I bought our first home while stationed at Fort Campbell, KY in 1992 after coming back stateside. To say the least the inspection fees were out of pocket and expensive.

This offer is only good for soldiers that can show proof of Veteran status or Active duty Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Reserves & National Guard included, in our service area.

Inspection must be completed by November 30, 2009

Thank You

Then why end the free inspections after only 20 days?

Huh??

I know a captain in the national guard who is an executive with the phone company. He makes A LOT more money that I do.

Since Aug of 2004, I have had the privilege of doing home inspections for returning veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan for $100. It feels good to give something back to those who have sacrificed so much for me. They appreciate the recognition for their sacrifices more than the discount, I assure you.

I don't understand your incomprehension. Didn't you say "Inspection must be completed by November 30, 2009"?

I'm just asking if you're so sympathetic to their plight, why end the offer after only 20 more days.

You are welcome to give away inspections to any group you wish. I've done it for clergy before. But I don't do it as a limited time only promotion. There's nothing wrong with that either, if you want. Nothing at all. Just playing Devil's Advocate.

I agree also.

For a few years I have offered Veterans a discount. I run various coupons online year round. Here is one that I currently offer...

If you dont understand my "in"comprehenion then maybe you should study marketing and maybe also lace up the boots. I will not continue with your remarks or opinions on a public board...so if you want to discuss this further you are more welcome to call me or send a private message. I honestly think your being an *** right now.

Ahh...so it is about marketing and not charity. My last comment. How does giving away inspections increase your profit? I do have a BS in business. I've studied Marketing. But I must have skipped the day then went over that chapter.

I'm out of here. I know when I'm in the wrong room.
