I am going to be watching and listening very close to the Texas Legislature this session and I will keep you updated.  This session is going impact all of our lives.  The short fall has to be made up somewhere and most likely new fees on license and registration for Brokers, Realtors, Appraisers and Inspectors  will be part of it.  Hang on for the ride – This could get very Ugly.

I was thinking  about writing up some curriculum on understanding the home inspection for realtors.  My goal would be to try and gain approval for this from TREC and then give the class to Realtors and possible credits.  I will let you now how this goes.

Manufactured Home Inspections is important to get  these right.  They are more difficult to inspect than homes on slabs.  They are prone to leaking and trapping water under the home.

Had a great idea.  Why not utilize everything I  do and offer Ranch Inspections.  I can use my horses to gain access to the far ends of the ranches and my RV  for long trips.  Yeah, a new service.

Went to the training today and it was very interesting.  If I did not have anything else going, this would be a cool job.  You have 24 hours to deploy and reach the  site.  Then you are assigned three days of projects.  Can’t talk any more today – More later.

I got a call from a Veteran today that is now working for the Harris County Sheriff’s Department.  He is buying his first home and was checking prices.  I gave him the price listed and then  told him I would knock 20 % off Veterans .  I am very proud of all our Veterans.  We can not even begin to pay them back.

I am finally signed up for my FEMA field training.  This means when  a disaster happens in the US, I will be able to go in with the FEMA team after things are safe and help the victims with any assistance they may need for their home and living conditions.

I am so excited. Tomorrow my youngest daughter and myself are heading out to ride our horses in an area I use to go when I was a kid – The weather is suppose to be great.

Went to a luncheon yesterday on the economic forcat of Houston and the Nation.  The good news is that Houston faired much better that the rest of the Nation, but I think we all new that anyway.  The market is saturated with inventory at the moment and it will take several years to get back to where we originally were.  The government just has to stop spending money.  More later or follow me on facebook.com/Houston.Home.Inspector

Hi everyone -  I thought I would start this Blog to up date any  Realtor and customers of news and changes with the Inspection Company.

Today is election day in America, and tonight will be interesting to see if we have taken our Country back.  I am a big believer in small Government and free business.   See you soon
