[Adam Veitenheimer]

Course offerings are always posted on the MB well in advance of the course coming to your area. Maybe once a year for Commercial Inspection Course. We have one coming to the Chicago area in March. One in Canada coming up soon. That's probably closer for you.

Adam,

We had one in Philly a couple of months back. We'll try and bring one to the Pocono area, but I cant say when. We'll probably be in the Long Island area in March.

now how well educated can one of these courses be? not that im skeptical, just curous how close commercial is to home inspections because of the course being so short...

[Joe Farsetta]

You'll have to ask one of the attendees. Try Peter Russel's quote. he went to NH a couple of months back. He attended a 3-day from another educator and mine. Read his review.

As to advertising commercial inspections, it is an unregulated profession. My course prepares you for the venture. Speak to Scott Gilligan.

Adam, about how many Home Inspections have you done?

Joe,
Adam hasn't passed the NACHI entrance exam yet!! Do you think he needs to take your commercial course???

[Joe Farsetta]

Linus,

Point well taken. I do not know Adam, and cannot speak to his current level of knowledge and experience.

Joe,

As an FYI, in Texas any property inspection, including commercial, for any property that is under contract for sale, or is being considered for sale (by the owner) or considered for purchase (by the buyer) is regulated by the Texas Real Estate Commission.

Manny,

According to many in attendance, TREC does not regulate the inspection of commercial properties.
