Greetings!

New blood at the KBHI.  Maybe even the Last Dance for "One KY SOP"?  A new Residential Code getting filed.  New Radon Testing and Mitigation Certification kicking.  Trying to keep up could be a full-time job -- if you didn't have PLI.  It's nice to know somebody's got you covered, nonstop.  It really does pay to know.  Read all about it.  We've a very nice 2012 together.  So, please, stay safe out there -- for a even better 2013.

Article2So, who's Robb Johnson, the Governor's new pick for the KBHI?

  


Article3ONE Kentucky SOP?

Is it "Taps"  for 1 KY SOP?  Or Freddy --baaack?  The latest Board committee speaks.

 

When home inspectors are asked, 99% say their Standards of Practice (SOP) are working just fine.

    We know.  Professional Learning Institute actually took the trouble to ask.  And we got an earful.  For more, see the PLI survey results in the article below.

Article4RADON CERTIFICATION JAN. 1?


     Kentucky's new radon certification law is at KRS 211.9101-211.9135.

Article5Uninsurable Home = 
Deficient Inspection Report?
 

A new danger for home inspectors is beginning to raise its ugly head.

       Homeowners insurance.

       That's right.  Good ol' homeowners insurance.

       Getting homeowners insurance used to be like going to a good neighbor.  It was there.  You were in good hands.  You hand over a check, they hand over insurance.

        Those days are fading fast.      

        More and more home buyers are being denied homeowner insurance.  Even more are being told they will not get insurance unless they fix up the home.  Without the insurance, closings are being called off or delayed.  Then comes the blame game.

       For home inspectors and their home buying clients, it's a real problem.  So far, the Kentucky Board of Home Inspectors has been no help.

       What's going on?

       Two things.  First, the "claims history" of the home.  Second, hazardous conditions.

       Here's how it works, and some tips on handling the risk for home inspectors.
