Thread: Hello From Michigan

Hello Everyone,

My name is Michael, I am from southeast Michigan (Metro Detroit) and have been enjoying this site over the last few weeks. What a wealth of information and tips, along with quite a collection of professional people. I have been sitting on the sidelines for a while and now it's time to jump into the game.

I am a licensed builder/remodeler full time, but have been doing home inspections for several years for local banks and realtors, more as a "favor" than anything else. I am considering taking it to the next level as a couple clients have been telling me how disappointed they are with their current inspector and want me to consider working with them more often.

I look forward to spending more time on this board, and getting to know everyone.

Greetings Michael, it is my honor to be the first of the members of this group to welcome you.
I am also a "new" to the business. Not much different tham you. I have been in the construction field for 20+, that last year spent doing mold inspections and mold remediation as an employee of a GC.
In Jersey you need accredited training and a licence before you can offer Home Inspections. I am in the process to obtain mine now.
Good luck to you.

Thanks for the welcome Steven,

Right now Michigan does not require any type of licensing at all. Print up some business cards, buy a flashlight, and your a home inspector. I want to stay ahead of the game and get the proper CE training and certifications so that when Michigan does require licensing, I will be ready.

Good luck to you as well and hope to see you around the boards.

Mike
