There is not an Amerispec franchise listed in Oak Park IL., which is the address the guy Linas is referring to is using and he is not listed as being licensed in IL. either.

It appears they are into cleaning and restoration for water and fire damage, indoor air quality, mold inspections, etc.... based on my research on google.

Some contractors do inspections, but not home inspections. CMI is not limited to just a home inspection.

So you can be a meat inspector and be CMI. CMI is not just home inspections. That's funny. CMI- Certified Meat Inspector

You ought to see their logo.

CMI has been attracting a lot of interest from commercial inspectors. Commercial property inspectors are not licensed in any State or Province. You heard right. You need a license to inspect a 1 bedroom condo in many states, but no license to inspect a 300 unit condominium in that same state.

I guess it's 366 CMI's now. Thanks for your quick response Nick.

Welcome Mark! We processed your application today. You are an Amerispec inspector in Ontario, no?

Also, is it Amerispec or AmeriSpec?

[Keith Runquist, CMI]

Welcome Mark. Say hi to Roger.

Yes Nick, in and around the Toronto area. I work for one of the larger franchises. Nice to be CMI, CMHI is next. Just have to make the time for the field peering. Bloody busy for a January.

Thanks again!

Will do Keith, thanks. How do you know Roger?

[Keith Runquist, CMI]

Mostly by reputation but I'm pretty sure I met him at one of the conventions. May be wrong on that. I'm with Amerispec also.

Maybe CMI's don't have to be licensed home inspectors in Illinois.
Maybe his vacuum cleaner serial numbers were verified.

They don't have to be licensed... unless they are doing home inspections. Commercial inspectors are not licensed in Illinois, or any other state.
