Good morning fellow inspectors
I would like to submit an article about The Profession of Home Inspecting and how the fees we charge relate to other "Professionals"
I have discussed this for several years with our local Nashville-Middle Tn. group,but to no avail.
If the article gathered any interest,I would love to submit subsequent short articles reminding members just how far out of line we are with other professions on the fees we charge..
I have been a home builder/developer for the past 40 yrs. and started my inspection business in 1990. My inspection income had always been a great supplement to my income from building. And for the past 20 years,I have always preached to the local group about the low fees they were charging.
Now, due to the economy, I have stopped building for a while and I can verify that inspection income is woefully short of my established needs. Thank goodness I have other income.
Hopefully the article will build confidence in inspectors and allow us to charge appropriate fees for what truly is a great "Profession"
I look forward to your comments
