KNOW CONTRACTOR SCAM PHRASES
Like most homeowners, you probably spent the winter months talking
about the various home improvements you'd like to make. Now that spring
is here, it's time to act on those remodeling ideas.
Unfortunately, it's also a time when incompetent or unethical
contractors come out of the woodwork to prey on innocent homeowners.
To help reduce your risk of being scammed, here are some of the popular
phrases I encountered when I was rehabbing real estate.
"I just happen to be working in your neighborhood."
"I have materials left over from another job."
"I need the cash up front."
"I have a special offer that's good for today only."
"I can help you finance the project." (NEVER, EVER, EVER DO THIS!! You
can potentially lose you home to the scam artist.)
"I want to use your home as a model."
If you ever feel that you are being solicited by an undesirable
contractor, report them immediately.
