Who We Are:
The ARIES Co is a subsidiary of NARIES, founded in 1998 by Michael W. Pederson, an Architect since 1981, who has been inspecting residential and commercial buildings since 1986. NARIES, which is the "National Association of Real-estate Inspection and Evaluation Services", is being presented as an all inclusive association for consumers and real estate professionals together. It is open for membership to the public including, home owners, buyers and sellers, Home Inspectors, Appraisers, Assessors, Real Estate agents, Brokers, Mortgage Bankers and Brokers, and related professionals including Architects, Engineers, ICBO Building Officials, and all related building and construction specialists. ARIES is the training branch of the association offering building inspection training, especially focusing on Home Inspection Training and professional certification. Beginning with this program, the individual is prepared to advance toward more complex inspecting of buildings and structures. The ARIES Co has been training since 1993 in Seattle Washington, and has produced many successful full and part time Home Inspectors, either for new careers or as additions to their current occupation for supplemental income. With this in mind we hope you choose the professional approach we offer.
Our Philosophy:
Our philosophy is this. The home Inspection business is a professional service and not a trade or a professional trade. The inspector's responsibility is as an agent to a home buyer or seller, therefore it is like a fiduciary, because you act solely in the interest of the person you represent. Though this is what separates the Home Inspector out as a professional service provider, and although inspectors do not sign any documents in their behalf, they do provide a significant personal document clients depend on in the decision making, and purchase and sale process. This requires considerable knowledge and skill beyond that required of ordinary business services. As a professional Home Inspector, we believe the inspector should provide an opinion, with the best possible advice and information for the home buyer or seller, including life health and safety issues and recommendations according to NARIES uniform Standards of Practice. NARIES also provides members a, Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct, which outline the duties for professional Inspectors and their services. We believe these uniform and comprehensive ethics will serve everyone beneficially and without prejudice or compromise, for superior services and a respected presence in the business community.
