We are pleased to announce the confirmation of a two-day seminar/field trip on "Inspecting and Identifying Heritage Homes".
This seminar was originally produced by Cam Allen for another home inspection association, which felt it would be too technical for most home inspectors. Cam introduced it to a number of attendees at the InterNACHI-ECO September meeting in Kingston, where he received a very positive response.
We are now prepared to offer this seminar to anyone who is interested... however you should have at least, some level of home inspection experience to realize the full potential of participating in this seminar.
