I wish BP had a international section :)

The assessment evaluates the home’s energy efficiency, and conducts analysis to asses the potential savings for a variety of improvements.Cost Effective Test for Newly Constructed HomesFor newly constructed homes, the improvements are cost effective when they exceed the standards set by the most recent International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) that has been adopted by HUD for new construction properties.

New Choice Hotels International franchisees need to have at least a $750,000 net worth.

A sign must be posted on the interior relating various information required by the city.

Maybe they can call it an “intern” position.

We have our own internal application that we use regardless of the platform that the lead comes from.

FDIC is giving internal warning as well about the health of bank affected by CRE.

An insurance agency could charge a fee as well but they'd have to show that too.If everything is the same on the policy (can be hard to tell with a cursory look at a quote) it's possible some of the internal risk information was changed a (such as year of update) and the underwriter changed pricing to reflect that.It's also possible one agency asked for pricing credits to get as close to a certain number (perhaps a number you told them based on the current policy) and the other agency was unaware of that number so they didn't ask for credits.That would be the most likely in most cases but it's odd since the quote was already created and given to you from The Hartford that it would change so much.By the way, your agent should be able to retake control of the quote quite easily with a signed BOR/AOR as discussed. 

I don't see how starting interior demo and framing or rough-in work would be in the way of doing exterior work?
