The author of that quote, as a professional in the capacity of servicing the inspection profession, certainly is and should be up for rebute when such statements reflect badly upon FREA--- which this does.

I do agree with Scott and Jerry (I am not a member of ASHI, nor have I ever been) in that there is a time and place for everything. Unfortunately, as an employee of FREA, you have publically bad mouthed an organization (ASHI) that has been the back-bone of the profession from its inception til it's present day form. Being called on "the carpet" by the folks of that organization and asked publically to apologize is certainly warranted.

It's pretty simple folks... if the ASHI members feel the quote; "Clearly, it's not possible for to find a qualified inspector through ASHI. They only exist in the NACHI organization", was in gest, then it is something that can be easily forgotten. However, I believe that if that quote is taken at face value, those with FREA should indeed seek coverage with another carrier.

Nothing like voicing displeasure with where and who you spend your money with.
