You are correct. The panel is real estate. I don’t know why you would ever dismantle personal property. It is poorly written but written nevertheless.

It sets the minimum standard.

Yet, it’s not true, as it is stated. If it were, **you** would not have been able to get a home inspector license.

I think what you meant to say is that a home inspection license does not automatically qualify a person for a code inspector license and vise versa, or automatically allow one to perform services in the other field.

I think you are having a problem expressing your opinions which is why everyone is scratching their head wondering what the hell you are talking about.

I have run into situations on new builds especially in areas outside of Phoenix (eg Sedona) where I have found referring to a particular new code helps the inspection process. Many times I have had situations where sub contractors and sometimes county inspectors have disagreed with my findings because they are not up to speed on current building codes. I never get pushback from them once I give them the code. It is a precarious position to be in but it does occur.

I agree with you Paul. We should be able to support our opinions. And people will disagree with us and that’s ok. If I have a concern (as a generalist) and it turns out to be a big nothing burger, it is not the end of the world. Of course I try to minimize this.

And sometimes the contractor is just wrong. I recently reported a brick problem. The contractor stated it was merely cosmetic and just needed more caulk and more pointing. I told the client to get a second opinion, which she did to her advantage.

He was, but it seems he joined InterNACHI as a member and his ban was lifted.

No, I didn’t mean to say that but yes that is true.

Yes/no, I am not the best when it comes to writing. I don’t get asked to explain myself, I’m just told that I am wrong without any proof of why that is so.

Why?

You are wrong. I am a member and am afforded all the rights that other members have. Before I was a guest.

Not me. I have **no restrictions**. None, zero, nada. That is why I got certified in 2006. I saw this day coming.

I ask you a question and your only reply is a cartoon. That’s because you have no answer other than to insult.

Done with you.
