If you are worried about the lien waiver then yes just tell him you will pay him once you get both lien wavers and you will have him the check at the same time he hands you the waiver..

PA is especially interesting, south side of Waverly with Eichlers at 2 mil lol. 

@Nathan Gesner I agree, because my rental is a business and I shouldn't waver away from the screening process even if its just a trusted contractor, but funding is what we need and I heard the SBA is a good source but is slow, thanks for responding.

In that scenario, if that happens, the prices will go up so they want to buy now and ride the wave. Rent

It's true that after paying their warranty for a number of years, when they did see evidence of big-time termites, Couch came and tented their 2200 sqft two story 1920s house for free.Good luck- Waverly

Liability risk is high, insurance coverage will be an issue, you will get sued if there is a drowning and a waver will be of zero protection.

It is always important that you set firm screening standards and never waver.

This is why you establish high standards and stick too them, no wavering or you will place yourself under a potential microscope.

I wavered between selling or renting prior to getting insight here. :/ But at least it will give me time to prepare for 1031 exchange and pick good investment(s.)
