February 2006 (Palm Springs, Calif) — The year 2006 marks the 30th anniversary of the California Real Estate Inspection Association (CREIA). Started in 1976 by a handful of home inspectors in the Los Angeles area coming together to help educate themselves and to reach out to the home buying public, CREIA has seen its humble beginnings grow into a professional association with over 1,200 members throughout the state and the west coast. CREIA members perform over 350,000 inspections annually for Californians.

From the beginning, CREIA committed itself to representing the profession; promoting real estate inspection as a unique, professional discipline; providing leadership through education and by maintaining ethical and technical standards; and enhancing consumer protection and promote public awareness. The message and mission of CREIA continues today. With education and consumer awareness a priority, CREIA offers over 400 educational programs each year via 25 chapters throughout the state. In addition to an annual conference and a specialty symposium, CREIA also publishes a highly informative magazine and hosts an award-winning informative website at www.CREIA.org.
