Here is the link: http://www.canada.com/life/inspect+your+home+inspector/2050469/story.html

columbus ohio home inspectors: Over Qualified! - 05/13/07 08:59 PM
I can not believe that there are Realtors that would not hire someone because they know too much. In my area there is a Realtor in the Delaware Ohio area that will not use me. WHY? Because I might find something. She has never used me nor has she ever seen one … (14 comments)
columbus ohio home inspectors: Free Home Inspections - 03/24/07 05:17 PM
I am giving free home inspections away for a price. Sounds like some of the scams that want to give you $15,000,000.00. I thought it was time to lighten up for a minute. I give no discounts, or freebies, for my work. Having me is a discount in and of itself. I know that sounds arogant but … (0 comments)
columbus ohio home inspectors: Vacant homes - 03/24/07 08:06 AM
With all the rain that we have had lately in Ohio I thought I would share this with you. Check the sump pumps in your vacant listings. This is NOT legal advice. This is from the 2006 Residential Code of Ohio: 115.2 Maintenance. Residential buildings, structures and the building equipment shall be maintained in a … (0 comments)
columbus ohio home inspectors: Just curious? - 03/23/07 04:28 PM
I am wondering how people in different areas of the country (that have no licensing of home inspectors) address, and/or feel about, the fact that they (some home inspectors) claim to be certified? Do you have a problem with the fact that the public assumes that a 'certification' must be given by your state? Is … (6 comments)
columbus ohio home inspectors: Certified building inspector - 03/23/07 04:06 PM
This is for Ohio only! There are some individuals that claim to be 'certified' as a building inspector. A 'Certified Building Inspector' is someone who is certified by The Board of Building Standards of The State of Ohio. This part of what it says: BUILDING INSPECTOR & COMMERCIAL I.U. INSPECTOR Three years experience as a construction contractor … (1 comments)
columbus ohio home inspectors: Home Inspector Org.'s - 03/19/07 05:54 PM
We all know that there are only two Home Inspection organizations that have ANY credibility. The rest are, in my opinion, just revenue generating 'clubs'. As Realtors do you not want the best inspectors representing your clients? Stand up and demand a countrywide standard for home inspections. The ASTM is working on a standard … (1 comments)

Anyone can copy and paste someone else's matterial, and I do that sometimes too. The main reason that I copy and paste is to show everyone reading that the information is from a credible source. I try not to bombbard you with alot selfserving information. In the State of Ohio there are no requlations. … (1 comments)
columbus ohio home inspectors: Workers Compensation - 03/15/07 03:22 PM
Do the people that you recommend carry the required workers compensation that is required in your state? This can be very important should someone get hurt on one of your listings. We carry workers compensation. … (0 comments)
columbus ohio home inspectors: NACHI - 03/01/07 04:06 PM
Here is a quote that NACHI members use: "Be sure to choose a NACHI home inspector. Anyone else is just looking around!" I guess that a state certified inspector is 'just looking around'. That is exactly what a NACHI member is doing if they are inspecting your new home in Ohio. Ask the NACHI member … (4 comments)
