John Dirks Jr Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 This bill was recently introduced in Maryland regarding new regulations for the home inspection industry. http://mlis.state.md.us/2008RS/bills/sb/sb0196f.pdf Imagine it was your state and tell me what you like or don't like about it.

Eric B Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Scary stuff. Almost no education/experience requirements. Did I miss the part that says what the inspector is suppose to do? And this law is for whose benefit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dirks Jr Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Actually, the legislation is just getting under way here in Maryland. They do have a SOP out also. I'll post it as soon as I track it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottpat Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 With a education requirement like that folks will have a difficult time passing the NHIE. Out of the 19 states that now use the NHIE those that have the pre-licensing education hours also have the highest pass ratio for the NHIE. What are the requirement in MD right now? I thought the license law started at the first of the year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dirks Jr Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Here are the current requirements: http://mlis.state.md.us/asp/statutes_Re ... nsion=HTML I didn't have to take the NHIE but I did by choice and I passed it. I'm sure the training helped. Lots of other reading helped too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
