    Common Mistakes When Hiring Contractors and How to Avoid Them (You pick and choose which ones you want to utilize):
    1. Paying the Entire Amount Up Front: Paying the entire amount up front may lead to challenges. Some individuals, including contractors and politicians, often use your money to finish their current job and then look for a new job to sustain themselves while working on yours.
    Tip # 2, "Consider hiring specialists or vendors, also known as subcontractors, for significant tasks. For smaller tasks, handle them yourself or hire a handyman; for larger tasks, engage specialists before, during, or after the main work," likely solves this and is relevant to mention.
    2. Hiring Specialists or Vendors Instead of Major Contractors: Consider hiring specialists or vendors, also known as subcontractors, for significant tasks. This can include large brand-name companies, such as a prominent plumbing company. While it may initially seem more expensive, it can actually be cost-effective as you avoid the premium markup a major contractor would add on top of their payment to hire the same companies or subcontractors. Additionally, these specialists are experts in their field, possess all necessary materials, and have reputable standings (be sure to check online reviews on sites like Google Maps, Yelp, Angi, Thumbtack, TaskRabbit, HomeAdvisor, Bark, Porch, Handy, Houzz, Nextdoor, etc.).
    A major benefit is their ability to complete the job promptly. For instance, hiring a well-known plumbing company means they likely have the staff and resources to start the project quickly. It’s acceptable if the specialist you’re working with is in demand and can’t start for 30 days because they have other jobs lined up.
    Hiring a brand-name company means you typically won’t face issues like not receiving a fully detailed scope of work. These companies are experienced and know what to do, though you should still inform them of your specific requirements and ensure there’s a clear agreement.
    Effective specialists do not need to revisit their work because they do it right the first time. You can find highly-reviewed vendors for roofing, electrical work, plumbing, air conditioning, flooring, and painting. These specialists may be more affordable than a major contractor who often adds a markup. For smaller tasks that you can handle yourself, consider doing them personally, or hire a handyman. For larger tasks, hire specialists before, during, or after the main work is completed.
    3. Hiring Without Getting a Referral: There's no reason to "wing it" when finding good workers. You can ask local property managers, management companies, realtors, and check internet reviews on sites like Google to see their Online Google Map Reviews, Yelp, Angi, Thumbtack, TaskRabbit, HomeAdvisor, Bark, Porch, Handy, Houzz, Nextdoor, etc.
    Tip # 2, "Consider hiring specialists or vendors, also known as subcontractors, for significant tasks. For smaller tasks, handle them yourself or hire a handyman; for larger tasks, engage specialists before, during, or after the main work," likely solves this and is relevant to mention.
    4. Not networking at area or brand/non-brand building supply stores: Good contractors often visit supply stores early in the morning or late in the evening to prepare for the next day. Gather their contact information and ask if you can visit a job (otherwise, request photos of projects they have completed along with provided property addresses to coordinate with the photos) they are currently working on in your property's area, nearby cities, or across multiple counties.
    Tip # 2, "Consider hiring specialists or vendors, also known as subcontractors, for significant tasks. For smaller tasks, handle them yourself or hire a handyman; for larger tasks, engage specialists before, during, or after the main work," likely solves this and is relevant to mention.
    5. Paying the Final Payment Without the Job Being 100% Complete: It's difficult to get a contractor to return after you've made the final payment. Don't let the contractor's problems become your problems.
    Tip # 2, "Consider hiring specialists or vendors, also known as subcontractors, for significant tasks. For smaller tasks, handle them yourself or hire a handyman; for larger tasks, engage specialists before, during, or after the main work," likely solves this and is relevant to mention.
    6. Not Inspecting the Work Before Paying: Always inspect the work, either through photos or in person, before releasing any payment. Ensure the job is complete before making the final payment unless you trust the contractor or have someone you trust inspect the work for you.
    Tip # 2, "Consider hiring specialists or vendors, also known as subcontractors, for significant tasks. For smaller tasks, handle them yourself or hire a handyman; for larger tasks, engage specialists before, during, or after the main work," likely solves this and is relevant to mention.
    7. Not Paying for Materials Only: When dealing with a new contractor, pay for the materials first and for labor as the job progresses. This way, you know the materials are on-site, and you only pay for the work as it is completed.
    Tip # 2, "Consider hiring specialists or vendors, also known as subcontractors, for significant tasks. For smaller tasks, handle them yourself or hire a handyman; for larger tasks, engage specialists before, during, or after the main work," likely solves this and is relevant to mention.
    8. Not Setting Strict Milestone Payment Structures: Be clear about when payments will be made. Specify that the next payment will be made once specific tasks (e.g., floor tile, electrical work, sheetrock, painting, cabinet installation, carpet, doors, etc.) are completed. This leaves no room for questions.
    Tip # 2, "Consider hiring specialists or vendors, also known as subcontractors, for significant tasks. For smaller tasks, handle them yourself or hire a handyman; for larger tasks, engage specialists before, during, or after the main work," likely solves this and is relevant to mention.
    9. Paying a Deposit After Buying Materials: If you purchase the materials, there’s no need to give the contractor a deposit. You've already covered the material costs.
    Tip # 2, "Consider hiring specialists or vendors, also known as subcontractors, for significant tasks. For smaller tasks, handle them yourself or hire a handyman; for larger tasks, engage specialists before, during, or after the main work," likely solves this and is relevant to mention.
    10. Bonus Tip for Paying Contractors You've Never Worked With: Pay contractors with a credit card when buying materials. Credit card companies offer consumer protection, and the contractor will need to verify that the work is done to receive payment. This ensures your money is protected until the work is satisfactorily completed.

    Closing Process
    HIGH BIDDER MUST CONTACT US VIA EBAY MESSAGE WITHIN 24 HOURS OF AUCTION END.
    1. Send the complete down payment (Bid Amount) and the 1st monthly payment (which you fairly chose and we agreed upon via eBay Message before you placed the bid) by certified bank check or money order to Todd C. Watson The Law Offices 209 Walnut Street, Newport, AR 72112, within 48 hours of the end of the auction. (We do accept credit cards and PayPal, but you must notify us prior to sending funds).
    2. Sign up your property at https://helperpropertyllc.managebuilding.com/Resident/portal/login/create-account
    for ACH autopay via Buildium.com. Payments due on the 20th each month.
    3. Sign up the property on Yourgreenpal.com for "every 2 weeks" lawn cutting. Select a quoted price bid ranging from to 0 per lawn cut, ensuring the chosen quote remains consistent. You can keep the same landscaper or switch if the initial choice does not meet expectations (Do NOT select one-time lawn cutting services). Provide digital proof of registration for your property and confirm a landscaper is ready to commence grass cutting the following day.
    Since this requirement is for your property, you will need to create an account on Yourgreenpal.com using your email. This "every 2 weeks" lawn cutting service on Yourgreenpal.com is a condition outlined in your 30-year rent-to-own agreement / owner financing (note: you must first win the eBay bid before pre-signing up).
    This action must be taken immediately upon winning the bid. You must maintain lawn care twice a month until November, as grass growth in Virginia typically ceases from November to early March. Starting in March and continuing until November annually, the grass grows rapidly and requires bi-weekly ("every 2 weeks") cutting, which you will request through Yourgreenpal.com starting in March.
    To assist in this effort, your landscaper will apply chemical herbicide (you must request this "spray chemical herbicide" as part of your service from your landscaper - cost is typically the same or just slightly more, or alternatively, if "spray chemical herbicide" is not available, you can request solarization, mulching, hand weeding, cover cropping, vinegar or organic herbicides, or flame weeding) unless you prefer to maintain regular grass growth and choose not to stop it until November. This aims to reduce grass growth so that regular cutting may not be necessary. It's important to note that applying chemical herbicide (or other mentioned methods if herbicide application is not included in your landscaper's service) does not guarantee cessation of grass growth but is intended to minimize it. This strategy will continue until November of each year, ideally reducing ongoing grass growth. If the grass growth is effectively reduced and you provide proof of this, such as through applying chemical herbicide or other methods, you will no longer need to continue the lawn care service, unless the grass regrows unexpectedly.
    4. Provide full name, mailing address, email, and phone number for paperwork.
    5. Review and approve the 30-year rent-to-own / owner financing paperwork separately for each of the properties, sent electronically or physically.
