Thursday, November 20th, Methuen, MA (on the MA/NH border) ...be there!

EVERYONE is cordially invited to the first meeting of the New England Chapter of the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI), Thursday, November 20th at 6pm. New and veteran home inspectors, as well as members of all other associations, are all welcome-you need not be a member of InterNACHI. Anyone interested in home inspections can attend. Dress casual if you like, as our meetings are informal and fun, the way they should be. Spouses welcome. Come hungry!

The New England Chapter of The National Association of Certified Home Inspector's founding members, Gerry Beaumont, Marc Hutnick and Dave Valley look forward to meeting members of other trade associations, independent inspectors, and those looking to enter our profession.

Marketing your home inspection service to real estate agents.
Raising your prices when your competition charges less.
Converting every call into a scheduled inspection.
