I'm just not sure how to go about creating the laundry list of items I dispute on the final invoice.

Make sure to dispute anything wrong on the reports which will also help his score.

Also, offsetting creditor claims, grumpy attorneys, disputes among heirs and outright fraudulent claimants caused me to re-think the whole business model.A Better way to chill a sale is to tie up all the equity, not just a piece.

Magistrate and State Courts have no jurisdiction to hear a dispute over equity in Georgia, and the suit would have to be done as a suit in partition/ejectment in Superior Court, and you're looking at 12 months of litigation, rather than a couple of weeks. 

Others are written like textbooks and include haphazard low resolution phone pictures someone probably threw in at the last minute.

I wanted to acknowledge this post, and let you know that I have escalated it to our team to find a resolution. 

You are able to dispute the amount if you believe it to be too high but I'd check the millage rate before doing that as more often than not, you won't get a reduction. 

Explain the work was never authorized by you and they should seek a resolution with the vendor.

High-resolution photos are the standard in the market.

Clearly, I knew about this but did not know the extent of the problem, and I did not push to get bids before the inspection resolution was complete.
