Contractor - Vendor Agreement

Hiring a contractor should involve more than closing your eyes and choosing the least-expensive person for the job. Besides checking the reputation, making sure that pricing is in line and handing over a deposit check; wouldn’t you want to cover yourself? Some questions that need to be clarified are:
1. Is my contractor insured?
2. Is my contractor licensed?
3. How do I know the work will be done efficiently and timely?
4. What happens if something goes wrong?

These are just a few conditions that need to be addressed and spelled out BEFORE you hire your next vendor or contractor. Let’s face it; we take more time in choosing a cellphone which costs only hundreds compared to a home remodeling job that could easily be in the thousands.

Consumers' sign contracts every day for so many things. As a homeowner, you want to protect yourself and your real estate investment BEFORE permitting anyone to provide handyman, construction or repair services.

Let’s face it, hiring a home remodeling or repair person without having a good solid contract in place is like gambling with your whole home. Are you prepared for that risk?
