Default Big news coming. Any US or Canadian real estate agent who refers an InterNACHI member

.... are indemnified against negligent referral claims, forever.

We are contacting every agent in North America to tell them of the good news.

Smell that? That smell you smell across North America is the smell of non-members everywhere.... soiling themselves.

I don't know what is better, this news, or watching A$HI members spontaneously combust.

Is this tied to E&O or a specific carrier/broker?

Nothing new here, in Canada that is...

Hubs International has been offering Agent/Broker Referral Coverage with its E&O for a while.

Nope, you don't have to have an E&O policy.

This is going to cover the NACHI members RE agents who are performing sub standard inspections( 5-7 page checklist reports) and not following NACHI SOP or STATE SOP's also?

Correct. No real estate agent is negligent in referring a member of InterNACHI, which requires all it's members to follow their state mandated SOP or ours. Therefore the agent shouldn't be sued for negligent referral if the inspector decides to do something illegal. Not the agent's fault.

Anything in writing coming out with that. I've got a realtor trade fair coming up on the 14th and some marketing materials would be great
