And I gave up a bit of $$$ on this since the poor single women had suffered quite a bit at the hands of a contractor. He has since stopped legal proceedings to get her holdback $$$. I am now encouraging the lawyer to start proceedings against the contractor......I'm planning to make up the $$$ on that action!!


This is priceless.
I have to save this for future reference. You are ethically challenged macnasshole. Seek help; I’m quite certain I’m not the first to accuse you of being unethical.

We apologize to all our fellow interNACHI inspectors if they are offended with or web site or our pricing, my partner and I have 20+ years as home renovators and building contractors, we have watched so many home owners and investors taken advantage of by "shotty" inspectors / inspections (none of which have ever been a interNACHI member for the record so we all must be the BEST.)for the last 10 years we have been called before a home inspector, To do a before purchase evaluation of the property/home we have done this for 100's of investors / homeowners, ALL due to faulty inspector's and faulty inspections .
our inspections are 275.00 and up
(275.00 for like a 1 bedroom apartment condo)
if there is a problem with this please contact us directly. as far as the academy - we are starting this due to the faulty inspectors in western Canada, we have certified trainers in all building aspects helping with the training (certified plumbers/certified HVAC tech's/
Structural engineer's / contractors with 20+ years experience ect.)
if anyone feels this is not a good idea. Please contact us directly, I feel if we produce the best inspectors like us it will reflect on all of us interNACHI inspectors making all of us look the best and thats becuse we are. we are looking for input frm all interNACHI inspectors about what was lacking in there training so we can make this the best there is "interNACHI team effort" .

Maryo:

You have a strange sense of ethics........a single women was screwed by a contractor. The hold back money will not come close to "making things right" so I'm encouraging her to go after the contractor that has caused her grief over 3 years......that's unethical!!

What am I do do? Hold her hand, pat her on the head and say let it go, deary. The house is not near what you wanted but don't demand some type of justice........is that the Toronto way of doing things....no wonder it been so easy for Mike holmes to become a folk hero in 5-6 years......you guys make it a walk in the park with your sense of ethics!!

Go sit at Keith Swift's feet for a few days, maybe something will rub off!!!

Do you sit home and get drunk at night, get the intestinal fortitude up and then let go on these boards.......certainly not the conduct of a rational being. Please don't play with your gun in this state.

No wonder you have to beg and plead for members to act against me.......... and out of 6,000, only 3-4 join you!!!

Flame and fall.....I can see it all now. Real sad!!

BTW, where's your girlfriend Lina tonight?

I'm not gay, I was before I got married (added line)

My wife/partner of 32 years will never agree even if I was in a coma!!! But she would probably tell you my orientation when she comes back from Libya in a couple of weeks!!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------


The original post where I responded to Mary's:

BTW You didn't answer the inspectors question! Are you a homosexual?

My reponse:
hhhmmm! Not a married man!!?? You looking for a guy date also?? What's with Nick and now you??

My wife/partner of 32 years will never agree even if I was in a coma!!! But she would probably tell you my orientation when she comes back from Libya in a couple of weeks!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------


SO Mary:
What drives you to add to and change the original post to contain something homosexual. You are an obvious homophobe and still live in the grade 8 schoolyard?? Have a bad experience back there??

BTW: That post cames from the days when you were caught on these boards posting under MULTIPLE NAMES!!!!!......Oh, Right!!! You have multiple personalities so multiple names could be expected. I'm sorry that I've been bickering with you when you don't know who you are from day-to-day............................NOT!!!!!

To boot, a member of the "ETHICS" commitee found to be breaking the rules!!! Hell, this org has shown itself to have a hard time to keep itself on the straight and narrow........why can't it pick more people with personal integrity without loud, foul mouths???

What are you to do???? Inspect the house, not give legal advice. Unless among all of your imaginary degrees, you have a law license. I must suspect you are a "runner" for the local attorney, which is against the law in most states here. Question??? besides the $$$ you will get as an "expert witness" how much does the attorney pay you for the "referral"????

Perhaps it would be wise to wait until you've had more than 6 months of actual certification before starting a school. It's embarrassing to think that all it takes is a web site and someone elses training manuals and you're now a school. And considering that I watched you sleep through a lot of the actual training we went through, perhaps you should rethink this venture. The last thing this industry needs is a school set up strictly for profit with no REAL intention of bettering it. Bad Idea.

Mike,
I was thinking of getting certifies as a financial advisor next week and starting a school? Are you saying this is a bad idea?
Seriously, you have made a good point. A lot of inspectors get a "cert" one day and are a "professional" the next.

One quote I read and could not have said it better... Newbies advising newbies.

thank you all for the comments, again we are not newbies when it comes to inspecting or inspections , yes we are new to the certification with nachi , we have qualified instructors like i mentioned .we have been contractors for 20+ years , and what we are trying to do is improve the inspection industry. and by the way we use actual text books that our students get, and we do more hands on than anyone else. life is what you make it. but thanks mike for your input ....

Question??? besides the $$$ you will get as an "expert witness" how much does the attorney pay you for the "referral"???? Firstly, The lawyer contacted me. I have only ever eferred 1 client (last year) to a lawyer and she was to busy to take the case!!
I have offered litigation assistance since around 1990. The lawyer did not know the condition of the building.

We currently have just worked on getting the contractor to walk away from trying to get the holdback. He has not formally responde through his lawyer for 8 months now so I think he's giving up.

Some of the larger issues I brought out were not even in the lady's initial concerns. Was I wrong to bring these to the client's/lawyer's attention? Hell they were not even on the list of items to report on. Am I out of order here??

Now we have a couple of more experts to call in (metallurgist and masonry) to address the prematurely failing exterior finishes which these folks had not even realized were failing. So I'm recommending that after these reports come in, we go after the contractor. They were originally just trying to get the contractor to back off from trying to obtain his the holdback. Am I practicing law........No, I'm advising them that they have further issues coming at them!!! ACT NOW!! Is that practicing law??

BTW:
Where have you been for 1.5 months. Hopefully it's doing a good service/duty and not under your rock. I see you still haven't joined the association you support so much. Contact Nick so he can give you one. Show him all your posts so he can see you're truly working hard to get a free memebership. And go back under your rock!!!
