Call Russell Ray, I believe he laid off about 6-7 qualified inspectors late last year or earlier this year. You might also contact Michael Maseline @ A+ Inspections, he might be interested in some consulting work.

Good Luck!

If he already has his own contacts, why would he need to work for you and split fees?

Just asking.

Those are "Preferred" requirements. We would just like someone with some experience. If they have some contacts they will be successful more quickly.

I know the logic is that if someone has contacts, why would he want to work for someone else...

Haven't you ever seen a job posting that asks for experience? Has every job you've applied for said "no experience required"? If so, they were probably entry level.

Our feeling is that if an inspector has the ability (time, funds, experience) to run his own business successfully, more power to him. I did it. Most of the guys and gals on this message board did it.

But... There are experienced inspectors out there who don't want to deal with the headaches of running the business, they just want to work and get well paid. I have a couple of guys working for me just like this. Excellent inspectors, lots of experience, but just want to work and make money, not deal with phone calls, websites, marketing, paying bills etc.

This is not a scam, franchise offer, or in any other way a rip off. We are just simply offering a position in a very busy, growing inspection company. We offer a very generous split (and yes this is confidential so don't start asking on this board), insurance, equipment, bonuses, gas allowance, etc.

Thanks for allowing me to explain.

I hate to be the one to tell you this but San Diego only has 1 qualified home inspector and property consultant. I would think he would never apply for a job.

But I guess that is why you are searching the whole state.

I sent a message to Russell to see if he had any input. No reply. Is he still inspecting?
