Bill, if you are not a member, why do you have InterNACHI's logo on your website?

Things found on a Home Inspection



Good looking furnace eh



Buying a house is a fun, thrilling and sometimes stressful time for most home buyers. Not knowing all the facts about a potential property purchase can have lasting effects for years to come and end up costing you, the buyer, thousands of dollars in unexpected repairs.

Would you purchase a vehicle without first having it inspected by a certified mechanic? Of course not. Then why gamble with the largest investment that most people will probably ever make? That’s exactly what you are doing by not getting a pre purchase home inspection done performed by a properly certified home inspector.

Bluewater Home Inspections can alleviate some of the stresses involved with purchasing a new house. We offer a comprehensive inspection of all facets of the property. We also encourage all potential homebuyers to accompany us on the inspection so that we may answer any questions you have relating to your future property. The inspector will take the time to explain any concerns about the property, and will educate you on what maintenance is required to keep your new home in pristine condition. By attending the inspection you will gain the maximum benefit of the entire inspection process.

After the home inspection is complete, the inspector will provide you a verbal explanation of any deficiencies found on the property. A clear and concise written copy of the report is prepared and delivered within one business day. Our written reports are not a checklist type report, which are cluttered and difficult to read. A report from Bluewater Home Inspection is a comprehensive, easy to read report with pictures and visual diagrams to explain conditions found in the house and probable causes of any deficiencies.

A Bluewater Home Inspection will arm you with the first hand knowledge needed give you the confidence to make the correct decision on your next property purchase.

Jeeze Bill, you have InterNACHI all over your site. You even have our Infrared Certified Logo on your site and links to InterNACHI. Are you sure you're not a member?

Really? Then why do you keep InterNACHI's logo and links all over your site? Why do you brag about being an InterNACHI member on your site? Why do you have an Infrared Certified logo on your site? The Infrared Certified designation requires InterNACHI membership too.

Liar, liar, pants on fire.

Tell you what. You take me off your membership list as I asked two months ago, , and stop all of the annoying spam as I have asked long ago and I'll have all NACHI logos off my site by the end of the week. NACHI membership is surely nothing to brag about. Your Lisa demanded that the logos stay on my site a year ago when I actually foolishly thought it made sense to be a NACHI member.

I think you should also renounce CMI considering it too is a sham!

Some of these antics are just like the way OAHI operates.

I would also like to mention that Mr. Phillip Botriell Director and Treasurer of OAHI is not a man of his word. I have a letter signed by Mr. Bottriel one other director and an employee of Mr. Bottriell's stating that my appeal fee will be returned! Liar, liar pants on fire! Have been waiting since Sept for return of the $300, calls and letters to OAHI remain unanswered!

I would not be putting too much faith in RHI anymore because OAHI can no longer defend the title, it has no money to do so nor the will given the rot at the top and the questionable bookkeepping, and manipulation of proxies, no services, no benefits, no nothing. Yes RHI is as meaningless as CMI, and CHI!

"Yon Bill ( and Ray) doth protest too much!"

You guys must really fear Canachi to be trying so hard to kill it! As for using 'reputation' to build Canachi . That is probably a reputation best left undisturbed!

A real 'mover and shaker' in the Canadian industry would be spending his time as a uniter and not constantly trying to pull competing organizations apart.

George no one is trying to kill anything, but rather the associations seem intent and very good at destroying themselves. No one to blame but the various managements of the respective associations. The members only wish to be like Lemmings because they cannot think beyond what they are fed.

"but this thread has unquestionably ruined any chance CanNACHI ever had of being accepted as a credible, ethical organization in Canada."

Seems like a pretty good attempt at 'character assassination' to me. But then the author is known, as you have so many times pointed out, for jumping to conclusions. As CANACHI hasn't even been officially birthed yet, so the intent of that statement is quite clear. I guess that anti-OAHI organization is not making the inroads the founders had hoped. As Nick has said many times, home inspection organizations will get nowhere if all they do is present a negative image to prospective members.

What it boils down to is people/members being assured that their organization(s) are being managed in a responsible and ethical manner. The evidence thus far indicates this is not the case. Without outside oversite anything goes. When the issues are raised for discussion or actions the reaction is; shut-up we are in control, you don't have rights, your questions do not have to be answered, and we know whats best and take our word for it we are in control and all is right with the world!

People pay good money to belong to their respective associations. I don't understand why members have to be denied answers, due process or respect at the hands of benevolent dictators if I can phrase it that way. It seems if many like to be mistreated, its as if they are into SM.

I'm confused. Are you talking about OAHI or the new spin off (OHAPI?). Many take themselves, their reputations and their organizations far too seriously.

It appears that CAHPI, ASHI, NCP, OAHI, OAHPI, and PHPIO all have 3 things in common...

Few membership benefits.
Dwindling membership.
Bill Mullen, who goes on other association's message boards and tells lies.

Keep up the good work Bill... I owe ya! LOL!
