Robert Jones Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 I had a realtor contact me today about a FHA 203(k) rehab loan inspection. I do not have this qualification and am doing a little leg work for him. Any ASHI certified inspector on the FHA 203k roster? I will give your information to this realtor. Thanks.

hausdok Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 Hey, What's with this "ASHI certified" crap. What about us independents, what are we - dog meat? Keep in mind that indy's outnumber the drones in this state by a 2 to 1 margin. OT - OF!!! M.
Robert Jones Posted July 29, 2008 Author Report Posted July 29, 2008 There was no offense intended. The realtor just asked for an ASHI Certified inspector who was also qualified as a 203(k) consultant. I had one part covered, just not the other.
hausdok Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 Hee, hee, Jist messin' wit ya. Being an independent, I like the rumple the hair of the organization guys every once in a while. [:-dev3] ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike
Robert Jones Posted July 30, 2008 Author Report Posted July 30, 2008 But of course!!! I am guessing after the state licensing goes into effect, membership will decline(in the state) in the current organizations such as NAHI and ASHI. Have there been any studies of membership gains or losses in these org's after state licensing?
randynavarro Posted July 30, 2008 Report Posted July 30, 2008 No need to waste money on 203k software. When I got "certified" 10 years ago, I had to attend an 8 hour training. And submit resume with all qualifications.
tyler3474 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 The Section 203(k) program is the Department's primary program for the rehabilitation and repair of single family properties. As such, it is an important tool for community and neighborhood revitalization and for expanding homeownership opportunities more info. Since these are the primary goals of HUD, the Department believes that Section 203(k) is an important program and we intend to continue to strongly support the program and the lenders that participate in it.

d2rd Posted April 27, 2009 Report Posted April 27, 2009 Hello All, I am a mortgage broker. Can anyone recommend a 203(k) Consultant that knows San Francisco? The HUD list shows no one. The contacts for Oakland show termination dates from 4/2/09 or earlier. Does the termination date mean they are no longer certified? Please email me directly with your answer to dreamfunder@gmail.com. Thanks! -DD Hi, Here's the list of currently eligible/approved 203K inspectors in Washington State.

mayoung Posted May 10, 2009 Report Posted May 10, 2009 When looking for a 203k consultant the HUD list is clearly a good place to start but then you need to talk to them... you will find some of them have never done a 203k before. Do you want to be their experiment? I suggest trying to find a consultant that has had some training at a minimum and some consulting under their belt. Everyone has to start somewhere so a sound training is a minimum requirement. Most of them are qualified as inspectors or contractors but you need more than that. You need someone that knows how to conduct the consultation. What to say, what to have signed, how to apply their knowledge to the 203k so the lender can close the loan faster. I have had many consultants over the years who wanted to be able to create a bid specification and when they printed out our full report thought it was a lot of paperwork yet when they turned it in the lender was tickled that all of their work was done with regards to the 203k leaving them only the 203b portion of the paperwork to complete. Be sure your consultant is providing you with all the paperwork you need and not just the bid specs.
