INACHI Official Position on Home Inspector Licensing

[Brian E. Kelly]

Anyone know what the INACHI official position is???

I read an awful of threads and posts that are Anti Licensing, and would like to know what the official position is of this organization?

[Greg Bell]

The last position that I know of is:

As long as it is not biased towards any association then NACHI has no position.

[Nick Gromicko]

Greg Bell is correct.

[Brian E. Kelly]

Is there then an official list of which States have Licensing laws that INACHI has a problem with???

[Nick Gromicko]

Most home inspector licensing laws harm inspectors of different associations equally. None harm InterNACHI members particularly.

[Brian E. Kelly]

So Nick if you are saying " Most home inspector licensing laws harm inspectors equally", would this not show you/INACHI to have a bias against HI licensing???

[Nick Gromicko]

Leaders of other associations have complained from time to time that state licensing boards are "pro-InterNACHI" because of all the approvals we've been awarded (right column of www.nachi.org/education.htm ) but those approvals were well earned.

I do not recall caring a rats *** about leaders of other orgs..............

I get the feeling that the org I belong to is Anti HI Licensing, in any way shape or form. Just want it to be spelled out concisely so there is no confusion.

You sick of paying the $45.00 a year License Fee which is Tax Deductible (mind you)---

I hope that 45 bucks didn't put 3/4's of the Inspectors out of business---

Heck...we could of helped a few out if they asked---

C ya in the morning, bring smokes.

How could anyone think that NACHI (Nick) is anti-licensing? A simple look around the board on any given day reveals a post where more & more states are adopting NACHI based video training for various continuing education and/or licensing pre-requisites.

Check out this link where I searched for "X approves InterNACHI's online video training for X hours of continuing education"

Without the gift of licensing these courses would most likely never exist. No, my friend NACHI is not anti-licensing, no home inspector organization is.
