Their ride alongs are scheduled for Arlington (December 9-13, 2019) Houston (October 4-11 2019) San Antonio (November 1-8, 2019) Austin (November 18-22, 2019) Dallas (September 23-27, 2019) El Paso (September 9-13, 2019) Lubbock ( December 10-14, 2019)

Affidavits must detail the time and nature of your experience in a field directly related to home inspection, including but not limited to installing, servicing, repairing or maintaining the structural, mechanical, and electrical systems found in improvements to real property.
