Home Inspector with Bullseye Home Inspection

I am a Texas licensed home inspector in the San Antonio area. The vast majority of my inspections are phase inspections for new residential construction for builders. I do some buyer inspections but I find it extremely difficult to get in to see the real estate officer managers. I am very well qualified (International Code Council certified residential combination inspector, TRCC Certified Third Party Inspector for the Texas dispute program and I am a Green Advantage certified Green Professional). I teach courses for adult ed on Custom Home Building and Green Building. I also offer an Energy Audit in which I do a detailed energy appraisal of the house and give the client a detailed 15-19 page report on how to save energy costs. I think this report which could be conducted at the time of the buyer's inspection would be a great benefit to both the buyer and the seller. I am a retired USAF officer that conducts a thorough inspection at a reasonable cost. I just find it difficult to "get in" the buyer inspection process.

I would start by talking with some real estate offices. Here we are always short on good inspectors!

Bob, Welcome to Active Rain and Congratulations on your first blog post.  I recommend reading and commenting on several of the home inspectors in the Rain.  I feel your pain with visiting Realtors' offices.  I actually have had better luck meeting Realtors here on Active Rain.  I would definitely read and comment on everyone in San Antonio actively posting articles.  Be genuine and honest when commenting and you will make relationships.  Good luck and happy blogging.

PS.  Make sure to add your photo (not  logo).  People like to see who they are reading.  The blue image is kind of shadowy and logos say I want to sell you something.
