First ASHI going broke, then scumbag NAHI, now the Canadian associations. What's up?

[Nick Gromicko]

I am very convinced that it is to everyone's advantage (even industry vendors and other associations) to confirm or dispel rumors by posting them here out in the open.

The system works.

I am glad the truth has come out about OAHI and their financial difficulties. I have just learned that at the recent weekend conference for Realtors where Oahi had a booth that they were telling realtors that Nachi members should be licenced like OAHI members. The only problem is that OAHI does not licence anyone because its voluntary membership. Why in heaven would OAHI be telling realtors all inspectors should be licenced like OAHI members?

OAHI is great at disinformation. Heck they even include Friends of OAHI as actual members of OAHI! They are desperate to inflate their membership numbers! Overstating revenues while membership is down. Priceless!

It's been a rough year for almost all home inspection associations. NACHI is the exception.

We owe a debt of gratitude to Uncle Billy without whose help no one would come here to read the truth! You should be pleased to know that more and more members from CAHPI-OAHI are coming here to seek the truth. Truth they can't seem to find at the other associations.

Good work Nick, keep it up!

Hey Nick

I just checked out
http://www.nachi.org/documents/ashiletter.pdf

Under document properties it says you are the author! Ooooops.

Seems it easy to insert anyones name then have some fool claim it was written by whoevers name is inserted. Priceless!

Hey Claude

How come you have a problem condemning whats going on in your own backyard yet are willing and able to condemn what others say on this board.

I eargerly await the day you fall off the fence. You can't even gather your courage to condemn the mistatements in the London and Sarnia papers that you know to be completely false. So much for your ethical IQ.

I love how tough people are on the message board. Nick, can you please have a boxing ring set up at the Toronto show?

Wand vs. Mullen.

I'll bring the popcorn.

Garrison

Bring plenty of peanuts cause you can sit in the peanut gallery!

There is need to talk tough and I would talk the same to anyones face. I have experience in the ring!

Ray, I've had 5 well respected ASHI Chapter heads confirm that the letter is authentic.

I suspect that won't happen with the "OAHI" letter.

You mean to tell me that people would over exaggerate revenues, membership, etc., etc? Not in this industry. And certainly nobody that has any affiliation with NACHI.

"Over 2,500 inspectors, 92 exhibitors, 40 speakers, education galore, free nachos, one heck of a good time! ONLY $99 per person!!!!"

The part about the free nachos is total b.s

Nick I believe you. I was trying to point out that anyone can put anyones name in a PDF document if it has not had the security features set.

As to OAHI the numbers in the Registry do not jive. I know because I am the only one in Oahi who took the time to go and see the Registry at the OAHI lawyers office. Even Uncle Billy has not hat the brains to go see for himself. Once again he relies on second hand info that all is well.

The fact is OAHI is counting friends of OAHI who are lawyers, electricians, and insurance brokers as members. Why do you suppose that is? Again I saw the Registry and I will testify under oath what I read in the Registry! Its pathetic and low for a so called professional self regulating body to stoop so low to con the public they are bigger then they are. These so called friends also call into question the accounting abilities and what OAHI is basing its revenue on. True membership or false numbers? Hmmmm.

Thanks Nick.

Cheers,

Ben, I think you should provide the NACHOs. How about it?

Hence my request for the ring! We could put it in the exhibitor hall. You think free nachos will be a catalyst for booth traffic??? I think a boxing match between message board adversaries would be far more effective!!!
