I think he better be carefull. He seems to be spouting the same misinformation as someone from PA!

Funny how they leave out that you can Join ASHI and send in a check, then do your 250, then take their vaunted exam!

How does performing 250 inspections prior to membership qualify someone if those inspections were not monitored? No one knows for sure those inspections were on the up and up, or done to a standard.

I didn't know you were in business with your daughter. Is she old enough to be an inspector?

Oh, Jeanne's gonna love you for that one!

She looks so young because, even after 8 years together, we've never made the same paper mistake we'd each made twice before!

No problem, Pete-
but thanks for your consideration!

Somewhere in my U.S. travels I came across that line, and immediately appropriated it (it was for another trade, actually, & I don't remember which).

Since then, I've been flattered that a H&W realtor team locally has adopted it (re-worded) for their own use.

Feel free to adopt it!

Russ,

In no way a jab at the website, but some of it is a tad hard to follow with the font and color changes so intermingled...

Just an observation of your very pertinent and educational page ...


I also noted you've not adopted the 'power of nines' pricing strategy... I did a couple years ago (I guess it was just under 2 that RR espoused the idea and convinced me )


An ardent fan in the Low Country...

Mike, thanks for your comments!

I can control the colors, & will revisit that. I've always had challenges with controlling fonts and sizes on the site - I wonder if other people who use Roberta's templates have the same issues? It's definitely not WYSIWYG, when you type in one thing and get another.

Not sure if this will even copy...

My job, as your Home Inspector, is to determine whether ...

is near the bottom... goes up a font size in the middle of the sentence...

It's all great info, you just need to get a webmaster to work on it for you...


You can smack me in Vegas next year for pointing it out!

I don't have one floating around, that's why I am stuck doing it myself!

Great response Russ. When I get my website up and running, mind if I plagerize it? We also have no state requirements her in MI.
