Dear Neil,
I'm sorry that 30 some people have read this post and no one offered you any help or advice.
Here is mine, applicable also to other peoples future posts for help of this type.
You said" "I live in Pompano Beach, and don't mind traveling outside of my area"
That may be perfectly clear to you, but to this Redneck from Nebraska currently playing Hillbilly in Kentucky, I had no earthly idea where Pompano Beach is, was, or has been.
So I looked and found that you are in the Florida area around Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Coral Springs, Pembroke Pines, Pompano Beach, Sunrise, Plantation, Davie, Lauderhill, Miramar.
OK, now I know that Kentuck is probably a stretch for "don't mind travelling outside my area".
However, use the Inspector Locator on the NACHI Home Page or at
www.findaninspector.us to find a NACHI guy an hour or two away from you, like Orlando or Tampa. Write them directly asking for help.
I wouldn't bother with the guys in your immediate area. None of us like to train our competitors AND introduce them to people in our market, but don't usually mind helping someone from an hour or two away. That way you get the inspection experience and help, but not the local marketing contacts & help.
Give it a shot. Not everyone participates on the message board or will see your post. I'll bet you'll have a couple of offers within just a short time.
Let us know how you do on getting some ride along help.
Good luck.
