Environmental Service Professionals, Inc. Announces Closing of $ 200 Million Financing; Proceeds to be Used to Advance Nationwide Rollout and Expansion of Company's Career Training Plans for American Veterans
PALM SPRINGS, Calif., Oct. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Environmental Service Professionals, Inc. ("ESP") (Pink Sheeks: EVSP), an innovator in environmental home inspections, announced today that the Company has closed a debt financing in the amount of $200 million dollars from a private lender. Proceeds of the financing will be used to launch the Company's Healthy Home Mortgage program designed to create 60,000 jobs for veterans and disabled veterans and provide affordable, environmentally safe and efficient homes for American families. This Receipt of Funds followed a $200 million USD letter of credit from Metropolitan Financial Holdings, filed as an 8K on July 30, 2010 and announced on August 5, 2010.
ESP's Chairman and CEO, Edward L. Torres, stated, "These funds will be used first and foremost to create career training opportunities preparing thousands of Veterans and Disabled Veterans to participate in the Company's Healthy Home Mortgage program, which is dedicated to creating affordable, environmentally safe and efficient homes for hard-working American families. The program is designed for a minimum life span of 10 years and will create needed local jobs that cannot be outsourced. We expect to train and hire over 50,000 Veterans as inspectors and over 10,000 Disabled Veterans as Customer Service Representatives to support the inspectors and customers of the program."
The ESP program consolidates protocols for energy, moisture mold and other indoor air quality programs to allow one inspector to inspect a home on several different protocol levels at the same time, reducing the cost for consumers and stakeholders alike. The Company has been developing this over several years and has earned the cooperation of government agencies, major corporations and insurance companies. The resulting 10-year comprehensive, annual inspection program provides a fully certified national standard to mitigate risk and maintain equity across their entire portfolio, making ESP the first National Residential Inspection Company in the United States.
The annual inspection program assures that health, structural and energy issues are caught early, minimizing repair costs, mitigating risk and maintaining equity for the insurance, mortgage banking, building, real estate, and property management industries. Inspected homes receive the Healthy Green Living Certification seal, showing they have met comprehensive national health, structural and energy standards.
