Nope Im not gifted like Mozart or Beethoven or Yngwie Malmsteen, but Im not dumb either. Cars, pools, and houses are not rocket science my friend, they are inanimate objects that can be figured out quite easily, believe it or not. You are always defending your position here and repeatedly citing all the years of learning you have done to earn your quals. Thats fine, I dont begrudge you that, because there are people who need your services, and are willing to pay for them. After all thats how our societal systems work - get an education, get a good paying job (like Joe Hockey told us), buy a big house, get married, have kids, etc etc. Just be aware not all of us are lemmings who follow the same blind adherence to rules just because they are there and put in place by big brother who tells us how to think and behave. If you apply yourself, you can often avoid the compliance with the mainstream. You may impune that I am dicing with Lady Luck all you like, but as someone who has worked repeatedly worked on every square inch of a house, and know about standards and where to get them off the net, I know enough about houses to be confident in making my own assessment when purchasing . The only time I have engaged someone on a pre purchase is to have an electronic scan done for termites on a slab in ground house, but that was for someone else. This may hurt your ego, but when inspecting houses, I do not need your services. Sorry about that. You are right Brancko, I am one in a million. Dont you love me even more? Re: Adv. to having Building + Pest inspection BEFORE offer? 20Apr 15, 2017 12:46 am It's on my web site www.buildingexpert.net.au click on book an inspection and it will be at the bottom of the page building inspection agreement timber pest inspection agreement It's from my PI insurer and it is based on AS 4349.1, 4349.3 and 4349.0 Within the terms on my PI insuance I am required to direct customers to read pre inspection agreement. It simply means, if you don't like it don't book, you have the choice, conversely if you do then you know what you are getting for your money. To all those critical of disclaimers , exclusions and inspection limitations I say put yourself in inspector's shoes, what would you do? Some years ago I completed a relatively easy inspection and the young lady said to me that i was getting too much money for what I do. Then I told her i would put her on as my assistant and to come with me to the next job but she would have to crawl under house and in the roof space and say hello to all the spiders. That was the end of that.
