The Nationwide Property Inspection also goes by Foreclosure Bank Inspector advertises for Contractors and Sub-contractors in mulit-cities to conduct inspections. They request each applicant to pay $89 for the background check and once they receive it they will mail out a Foreclosure Kit. Once an applicant gets the kit they have to complete a 60-question test, 10 questions on racial bias and an Availability form. The company then notifies an individual if they have been hired as a contractor or sub-contractor. I did everything the company requested to do.

When I called and spoke with Jay Vincent,owner, he informed me I would receive an application in the mail to become a sub-contractor. According to him the company doesn't call individuals to become sub-contractors they would have to call in and request to become a sub-contractor. However one of the supervisors informed they do ont mail applications instead you have to apply for auto insurance and send at least 100 letters to banks and attorneys who purchase foreclosured houses.

In the Foreclosure Kit it doesn't explain a sub-contractor has to sent out over 100 letters to get a response. This is very important information that other people should know about. They need to know in order to work with Nationwide Property Inspections you have to pay $89, then $200 for insurance, $39-50 to mail letters a week, parking fees to visit the courthouse on a weekly basis.

According to the website the cost of the background check has been reduced to $69.

When I requested a refund I was told that I would not be refunded $89.
