Default Looking for another test victim...

Obviously everyone can tell that I have been playing around with video's. I just completed one for Paul Sabados for Accu-Pro Home Inspections and want to improve my skills. Once done I hope to offer these to the membership for inclusion on their websites, marketing, etc.

Who would like to be a test dummy. I'm also looking for some better quality pictures, especially of crawl spaces, etc.

More than likely I will ask that those that I make these videos for make a donation to the Foundation for Safer Housing. We'll see.

Nice set-up but the pictures are too blurry.

Looks nice John.

"If it's part of the house, it gets inspected." ...could creat some misunderstandings.

"You know...you didn't inspect my elevator, etc., etc."

That's why the good ole "Home Inspector Gods" made contracts. Structural, Electrical, Plumbing, etc. would fit under your umbrella of reasoning, also. (In my opinion)


This is simple PR, Larry.

Want to be my next test victim?

Did you all know that Annie Nicole Smith bit the big one?

I'm more interested in a test victim. Hopefully they will have their own pictures showing them in action doing an inspection of various systems.

The offer is great though, and I will probably take you guys up on it.

John . . . visit RRs website at http://www.abouthomes.info/ . . . go to Library (up at the top) . . . find NACHI and click and login . . . believe the password (see Members only area) and find the document 0251 and download.

Hope this helps . . . I'm looking thru some of mine . . . this may take awhile, hopefully others will post soon
