At NOAH RDI’s discretion, upon failure of the Member to comply with the Membership Manual, said action may result in the suspension or dismissal of Membership.
Where homes on movable foundations are concerned, the Member agrees to build only on Department of Transportation approved trailer frames sufficient for the size and weight of the movable Structure and its contents.
The Member agrees to maintain a sufficient smart device, WIFI and internet connection for inspection purposes. An insufficient connection at the time of the inspection, will result in a failed inspection and could be subject to a re-inspect fee.
The Member must be current on all dues & fees, including re-inspect fees before receiving a NOAH RDI Certification Seal or Certificate.
The Member agrees to pay for their Membership and additional Seals/Services according to the pricing structure in place at the time of Membership commencement.

This Inspection Services AGREEMENT is for the PARTIES to cooperate in performing and obtaining digitized inspections of Structures, for NOAH RDI to store digitized inspection record(s), and provide BUILDER a NOAH RDI Certification Seal certifying the Structure was built to the *Applicable Standard. Each unit will receive a Seal stating: Builder certifies compliance with the ‘Applicable Standard‘.
The PARTIES understand and voluntarily agree as follows:
NOAH RDI’s inspection of the structure and supporting documentation are in no way intended to be a guarantee or warranty, express or implied, regarding the future use, operability, habitability or suitability of the Structure or its components. Any and all warranties, expressed or implied, including the warranty of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are expressly excluded by this AGREEMENT to the fullest extent allowed by law.
Builder Membership Pledge: Indemnity Hold Harmless Provision
Builder shall defend, indemnify, and hold NOAH RDI, its officers, employees, and volunteers harmless from any and all claims, injuries, damages, losses, or suits including attorney fees, arising out of or resulting from the acts, errors, or omissions of NOAH RDI in performance of this Agreement, except for injuries and damages caused by the sole negligence of NOAH RDI. Builder recognizes their responsibility to utilize the access to the codes provided in the Member Portal to ensure all standards are met. NOAH is not responsible for indicating every non-compliance.
When NOAH issues a Seal and Certificate for a home, it attests that the condition of the home, at the time of Final Inspection and Seal issuance, has been deemed compliant. Alterations made after the build is completed is therefore the responsibility of the builder/homeowner.
NOAH Inspection and Certification does not guarantee Insurance, Financing or Placement.

Subcontractor Services
With regards to possibly utilizing a sub-contractor during any stage of inspection: NOAH values your business and in an effort to fully communicate our intentions, we will notify you by email 24 hours prior, of NOAH RDI’s intention to utilize a subcontractor’s services with regards to your build. A subcontractor’s services may be required to augment current staff due to an influx of inspections. In the event that a subcontractor’s services are required, their licenses and certifications for the field being inspected will be verified by NOAH RDI.
It is very important to NOAH RDI to maintain the same level of quality for every build. We do this working with industry leaders and experts. Sometimes this includes utilizing the services of a subcontractor.
