Just recently the HB 1217 which set up the licensing of Home Inspectors in Georgia was pasted by both the House of Representatives and by the Senate. Governor Perdue chose to veto HB 1217. What does this mean to the average consumer? It means that anyone can claim to be an inspector without any training or knowledge. It also means that you as a consumer may call one of these inspectors and you will have no clue of their knowledge until they finish the report.

All four of the organized home inspector groups fought for this legislation because they understand that they cannot prevent harm coming to the consumer by untrained inspectors.

When calling an inspector for your home inspection, be sure and ask the questions located in our “7 Ways to Avoid the Blind Home Inspector” report.

I have been trained through Kapland ITA and passed the National Home Inspectors exam. I am a member of Nachi (National Association of Certified Home Inspectors) and attend continuing education classes often. I may not be the cheapest inspector in town, but I’m very comparable when you compare my pricing to others who have been trained and certified.
