Has anyone ever heard of ISG Inspection Services out of Arizona?

They called today needing a Draw Inspection.
Any feedback about this company would be appreciated.

Thanks ahead for any info.

Didn't they used to be known as CocaMar! Used to do some work for them under that name. Didn't have any problems getting paid.

I did a search on the internet for them and it kept coming with Cocamar.
So I guess maybe that is them.
Thanks for the reply

I used to do inspections for CoCoMar. Paid on time, easy work. Good fill in stuff. Might be nice to have about now.

I was contacted by them two weeks ago about doing some work for them. I told they are nuts . They were going to pay max $35 to do a draw inspection. They were going to send me to a town 15 miles away. Take pictures ,write a report and travel time would come out to about $3.50 an hour

Im not used to doing draws around here. What do you normally charge each visit to the site?

Timothy M. Barr · 12-21-2008, 08:11 AM

no less than $100 depending on how many miles and what all the lender wants

I charge $100/hr. and $0.55/mile if it's outside 30 miles from the office.

If it's less than 30 miles away I drop the mileage.

You probably end up with about $100/hr. on your home inspections so why shouldn't your time for a draw inspection be worth the same?

In any case, your time is money. It should be worth the same for any type of service you provide.

They will give you a quote price, don't be hesitant to counter with what you feel is fair for your service. They will either hire you or they won't but losing money isn't a good choice. I have always offered a price to Cocomar and occasionally they hire me, occasionally they don't.
