>> Well it's, it's a good fit for me.
It's an excellent fit.
And by that I mean to be a good home inspector you, you need to have some, some qualifications.
One is you need to be technically competent.
You need to know what you're looking at.
I'm an engineer so that came pretty easily to me by background.
But you need to know what you're looking
at whether it's structural, electrical, plumbing, HVAC.
You also have, you got an eye for details because even if it's not a major concern,
the buyer might [inaudible] by something that's fairly cosmetic and you need to be able to see
that and address it even if it's not a big issue.
You also need to be able to communicate well.
That's a big thing.
You can have the very competent home inspector and there's a lot of them out there,
but they don't communicate well with the buyer and the agents.
And it's sometimes a fragile negotiation process.
And helping them understand what the issues are, not to blow them out of proportion
but to help everybody understand how significant they are in context both verbally
and in writing is very important.
And then to be honest, to be thorough.
There are home inspectors out there who will breeze through a house in 45 minutes.
And that's why home inspection, we take 2 1/2 hours on site because you need time
to check everything that you can and to ring things out and to go,
go chasing things that you're, that don't seem right.
It takes time to do that.
So being thorough is another part of it.
