Business is trying to pick up for me here in Northeast Arkansas. :)
Unfortunately the jobs I had scheduled for today cancelled because of the line of snow & ice moving through my area today(forecast is for 4" - 8" of snow for me, people here go nuts at the thought of any amount of snow). So now I've got a little time on my hands and I wanted to pose a couple of questions & see if perhaps someone could help me with an answer.
From what I find Missouri does not license home inspectors, but are there any other laws or restrictions that would prevent me from inspecting there? I have received several calls from the Bootheel area of Missouri, which is just north of me, mostly the Kennett and Hayti areas, all are from referrals from previous clients. I hate to turn down the business, but I want to be sure that this won't create a problem. I've already contacted my insurance carrier, I've been told that they will have an answer in a couple of days on their view. Preliminary answer was that it shouldn't be a problem.
Are there any organizations that are actively promoting licensure in Missouri? Since this area is so close to me I plan to license in Missouri when it becomes necessary. Any information that anyone has to share would be greatly appreciated.
