Repair
and maintenance are two important factors in real estate
business. Successful real estate businessmen knew how important it is
to keep a house in perfect condition. In most conditions, it has been proved
that maintaining a house from beginning is far better than repairing it at the
moment. In order to keep your property
in right condition it is very necessary to search for a contractor that can do
the work rightly.
Most of
the real estate owners neglect repair and maintenance works throughout winter.
When there is onset of summer they are suddenly anxious about pending repair
and maintenance works. In such conditions, if you are lucky, you will get a
contractor who is honest and who completes his work really on time. On the
other hand, if your luck is paying tricks with you (which is true in 90% cases)
you get a very bad contractor.
This bad
contractor will be a test of your patience and cool temper. He will stretch the
work up to months. There will be unavoidable stress, tiring struggle and a
number of fights. Dean emphasizes importance of a good contractor and how half
of the tension is released if you get a really good contractor. Dean believes
that most of the realtors who put their work in pending are actually making
conditions worse for them.

Often
there are realtor-contractor disputes reported on cyber as well as social
media. However if we play the game safely, we can definitely get rid of these
otherwise unavoidable disputes. Next time when you are going to search a
contractor for repair and maintenance work of your house, keep in mind
following suggestions.
Choose Between Individuals and
Companies:
There
are contractors working under supervision of a company as well as there are
contractors that are working privately, on their own. First thing to search a
contractor is to find out whether you are comfortable with an individual
working privately or do you prefer working with a company. There are no set
standards as on which one is better. Different people shares different
experiences.
Interview Phase:
If you
really want to avoid clashes with the contractor, you must choose an individual
or a company after several interview phases. Never allow a contractor to lead
you as per his wishes. There are contractors who can bully you and can
intimidate you. Never show any leniency when it comes of work. After all, you
are going to handover your property, your hard money in the hands of an unknown
individual. It is your right that you must make sure whether the individual is
capable of doing the work in right time, in right order and as per your
requirement.
Experience:
No
matter whether you choose an individual contractor or a company, you must check
their working experience. Although this too is not a set rule as exceptions can
occur, this rule will probably help you in deciding whether the contractor has
any dispute in his work history. You can give a chance to a newcomer, but you
must first hire him on trial bases.
Trial Contractors:
Often
there are newcomers searching for work. It is not necessary that all of these
newcomers will be negative contractors. In fact, there are cases in which new
contractors performed exceptionally well. To get best new contractors, you can
hire them on trial bases, for small tasks. Again, interview phase will help you
choose right candidate.
Legal Checks:
Last but
not the least, once you choose the contractor; make sure that you check his
background. Make sure that there is no criminal record. Make sure that the
contractor is verified and is licensed. If you are hiring an immigrant, check
that he has proper legal work permit.
