Addendum to NACHI Censorship
One reason why I have publicly raised more than once my concern about Mr. Gromicko’s marketing concept is - that I believe that his NACHI creation is simply not a trade association as claimed - but only another type of "Diploma Mill" with a different twist.
According to NACHI’s published statistics - more than 80,000 individuals have allegedly tried to take advantage of his offer to become a "NACHI Certified" Home Inspector" by clicking a computer mouse within the comfort of their living rooms.
Consequently many of these "wannabe home inspectors" who have flooded now the Canadian marketplace are obviously convinced that the obtained "NACHI Designation" is an endorsement of their competence - and/or entitlement to carry out property inspections. As a result countless of these "wannabe professionals" are now offering their services in my neighbourhood by undercutting the generally accepted fees charged by established home inspectors for years.
One can only hope that the downturn in real estate activities - last month we had in Toronto about another 33% drop in sales - will eventually force at least some of these "fast-track educated practitioners" to fade into the sunset.
