Vetting contractors remotely

[Gary Dezoysa]

Being in person is ideal but when that can't be done, has anyone been able to vet contractors remotely? 

If so, how do you do it? 

If not, what is a fair price to pay a local manager? And how do you vet them?

[Sid Leibowitz]

I can vet contractors and subs from the internet. Once you have a list of tradesmen in the area, you use google, yelp, BBB and consumer affairs to see what others have said or complained about. The information is all there
