We are just shy of two weeks out from this hearing. I’m sure leadership within the Florida chapter has some ideas about items that we should be most concerned about. I know that I do.
I would like to know who is planning to attand? I think those who are serious about attending and willing contribute in a productive manner, should start to organize.
I will be at the meeting. I would like to assist leadership if needed.
Remember gentlemen, our words are being viewed by those with deep pockets and a strong finnacial interest in limiting who can perform these inspections. So please respond appropiately.
Russ, me and possibly Preston will be attending. I have sent an email from the to Fl Home and Insurance Inspectors Chapter(350 people) requesting feedback via email. We will be having a board meeting on the 15th and this will be a topic. FlNachi also stated they are sending reps.
We(FLHII) will be making some key points only. We realize that there are many views on this form and there is no way we will all agree. We want a simple united front on key points only.
The biggest issue with inspectors is they are many times uninformed or miss informed. Many lack the background of how and why we got were we are(the biggest reason why this chapter, Fl Home and Insurance Inspectors was formed). I strongly suggest anyone who wants to speak-up at the meeting be will informed. All should review the ARA studies and previous commentary as well as other versions of the forms.
IMHO
I can invite you to our meeting for this discussion if you like
Am I correctly understanding that the conspectors of your chapter oppose NACHI home inspectors performing these mini-“inspections”? That would violate the code of ethics and could cost you your chapter, you know.
If those “few” happen to be among the leadership at this public meeting and they interfere with NACHI home inspectors getting work … they can lose their membership as well as their chapter. They should reconsider if this is their plan.
As usually you are sadly miss informed and do not understand anything. We do not oppose HIs doing these inspections. I wrote the class for them and contractors for free. Why would I teach them at meetings if I or anyone else in our chapter did not want them to do them?
Most of our members are not licensed contractors including much of our board, including Russ.
Are you on the Ethic’s committee?
You are a sad excuse for a human, people try to help and you attack as usual.
It is, if they do not know the background info. I am an inspector also.
If they are miss informed it is not their fault, if they did not know, they did not know. Again that is why the chapter was formed.
You are going to have to do better, than that.
Btw, every time you try to belittle someone, **You **discredit yourself, this organization and inspectors alike.
Yours was the first “belittling” post, kid. All I did was ask a question. I agree that it made you look bad.
BTW, “misinformed” is one word. Your consistent use of “miss informed” leads me to believe that this is more than a simple typographical error and since you represent yourself as an educator of the “uninformed inspector” I thought you might want to know that.
By the way. What did you do before you woke up and started calling yourself a home inspector? What was your experience that qualified you to start inspecting homes?
Conspector to me means a inspector that has much more construction experience than a person who is just a home inspector.
That does not mean anything bad to regular home inspectors just that a Conspector also holds a very difficult to obtain additional license that “may” give them additional insight a home inspector “may not” have.
I am proud to carry the Conspector designation and hold nothing against those who do not.
Except for James.
