hausdok Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 House Bill 1217, a bill to license home inspectors made it through both houses of the Georgia legislature but was vetoed by Governor Sonny Perdue. As justification for vetoing this legislation, Perdue remarked that there were professional home inspection associations that meet the desired aim of the legislation so he didn't see the need to burden taxpayers with something that could be achieved through market forces. OK Governor, we can appreciate that, but what about independent inspectors? When the so-called "professional associations" can't act professional and are actually an embarrassment to the profession, why should they be looked to as the ones to set the example and why should inspectors be forced into joining them?
