domestic energy assessors

Some of  you have been kind enough to think that I deserved a gift or something and ask me how could they send a donation for all my hard work here at DEAlocal ... I appreciate it :-) guys.

That is why I've created the new "Buy me a Beer" button that you can see on the left. You we'll also see it on the top right corner whenever you are logged in, therefore only members we'll be able to see it.

If you click on the button, you'll be taken to a PayPal payment web page where You can donate a few quid (whatever you like) to help me out or just to say thanks for getting you that job.

Don't be shy, try it out and Send Your Donation Now, so I can take my sweetheart to the pub tonight.

Cheers, I'll have one on you :-)

Hi everyone.

This is purely speculative at the moment, so don't get planning any New Year celebrations ....yet!

I am preparing a quote for properties in Cardiff (28), Portsmouth (25) and Exeter (28), also a number in Birmingham but I shall do those myself. They are converted houses for student lets and the agent has confirmed that they are 'group lettings' and therefore require an EPC. The majority of the properties are 6 - 8 beds with an occassional 9 or 10 thrown in. They will need to be completed around the Christmas period to coincide with the Uni holiday, so we are talking about 5-6 days work for each area.

I have just taken a call from a guy who has been offered training as a DEA. He has been told that he could earn upwards of 50k per year! Not only that it would only cost him £6,500 for the full training!

I put him straight on a few true facts – too many assessors, low charge rates, housing market etc etc. Advised him that the only one making money at this at the moment are the training companies. I was thanked for my honesty.

 In order to sale your HIPs and EPC producing services just do below points then you will never be a short of work

Hi Manuel and all other DEAs

I wanted to introduce myself to you all, my name is Catherine and I work in part of West Sussex.  I received a quote request from DEAlocal this morning so that was a nice surprise so I would just like to say Thank you.

I would also like to say, this site is very interesting and I look forward to being in contact with you all, now I am up and running.

Find below the Continuous Professional Development requirements by the DEA Accreditation Schemes

I found a site that might be of use to other DEAs for floor plans and reports.

www.themobileagent.co.uk

Its free to DEAs but Estate Agents have to pay will give good floor plans and EPC reports can print onto P1 form and saves as a file on your pc.

Give it a try ITS FREE

It will take about 1 hour to master but there are video help files as well.

About a year ago I, along with many others, was taken in, conned, call it what you like, into training to become a domestic energy assessor. The rewards, so it claimed, would be fantastic. With each inspection being worth between £100 and £130 each, earnings of up to £80k pa could be achieved!

Just a quick post to say thank you to Manuel for his help with a link from my website to my DEA local listing.

I have gained alot of help with getting to grips with website technicalities from yourself and the informative help that you provide on your website.

I have just recently swaped one link with a DEA local member thanks to your exchanging link article, with hopefully more to come. Once again thanks.

Some of the websites seem to be fishing amongst the independent dea's and funding themselves by extended credit.
