I guess that is another of those differences between IL & HI...IL - home inspectors are regulated (I do know that Building Dept. personnel in the 'collar counties' also were lic....but not sure if that was a state thing or a collar county thing...our last county even had counter clerks that were lic....but that was way over the top service... just think, you could get intelligent insight from not only the inspectors, but even the counter clerks! - here... "submit a engineered stamped plan for review" is the only thing from the counter.... and the inspectors...& I kinda wonder if any/all of them can even read a plan, just based on my limited dealing with them!)
