I have a related question so I thought I'd post it here. In the area that I live/intend to work there are only 12 registered home inspectors with the OAHI. When I looked them up I found generally their websites weren't graet. I'm sure with so few (in my opinion) RHI there isn't a big demand for marketing once they have an established referal network. Ok here's the question (sorry I'm long winded at times).... As part of my business plan, I am intending to puchase thermal imaging equipment. This would seem to be a "One up" on the competition. Do you feel that this sort of technology gap will lead to increase in business?

Hum, interesting fix. Steven, did that work? LOL you should have contacted microsoft, I'm sure they would have blamed norton lol

Hey PJKELLY, I'm in a similar situation as yourself. I am in the midst of a home inspectors course and have been doing research like crazy. Someone with more experience could certainly provide you with more information however I thought I'd pass along what I have found. Research has told me that E&O insurance costs on average about $50 on every $1000 billed with a minimum of around $4000. (Can someone confirm that?). As to where you can find insurance companies... If you go on the cahpi website you will find some advertisements. If you become a member their quarterly magazine is filled with companies that would love to take your money. In my research I found that TDInsurance has a very flexible policy and since I have a number of their insurance products already, I will likely be choosing that for E&O also. Hope this helps!
