Pensacola Realtor Says Inspectors Pass The Buck

[Jim Katen]

Yeah, a bunch of yahoos is closer to truth than profession.

But, I'm going to keep thinking and acting like it's a profession, and I'm going to keep calling it one.

I'm going to keep (pretty much) ignoring realtors and telling folks what they ought to do.

And I'm going to hope for more jobs like Jimmy had today. Those are what make it feel like a profession.

Be the change you want to see in the world, eh Mahatma?

Recommend hiring a competent ornithologist to evaluate.

Good discussion.

I have a little problem with Jim L's "--hired to tell them what is wrong with house." I don't think that is my goal. I am there to look at the house and the components and report on the condition. I am not there to find everything that is wrong. I don't think I have ever done that.

Al Ingram's opinion is actually quite useful. It reminds us that we continually need to educate people on the role of the professional inspector. So, is there a fault with Mr. Ingram or those in our field?
