TIP! HOW TO NOT GET RIPPED OFF BY CONTRACTORS:
When I'm renovating a home, no matter how hard I try to control costs, I always end up paying more than what was on the contractors' original estimates.
I realized that it's because contractors love to use this sneaky technique of adding extra to the job.
This is how it goes: Contractor gives quote based on minimal amount of work required for job.
In fine print it will say that the price can be adjusted if the work turns out to be more involved than originally estimated. Well, guess what, the work ALWAY turns out to be more than originally excepted. So, how do we avoid paying extras?
Use these 3 tips to make sure your next home improvement project doesn't cost you an arm AND a leg!

What are the benefits of an exclusive listing? 1. No outside broker interference to mess up the deal. 2.No unqualified buyers, vet every buyer before showing. 3. We handle all matters , c/o, fire cert, inspection, oil tanks. 4.We connect you to our network of contractors, attorneys, etc. 5. Reduced 4% commission on all exclusive listings. |
