@Chris Adams you're probably right that in your area it is different than in Georgia.With that said, in Atlanta the water company is also owned by the city and the law here states:(c) A public or private water supplier shall not impose a lien against real property to secure unpaid charges for water furnished unless the owner of such real property is the person who incurred the charges.

Also ask for and check some of his current suppliers and subcontractor references to make certain he is liquid and has a good reputation with them as well.

I have two on-line suppliers, using whichever is on sale when I need them.

It's usually possible to own a construction company where the owner won't need a construction type license where they are tested, but the work is subbed out to a licensed contractor, being more of a construction management company that gets jobs and coordinates work.Consider too that you can float material costs at box stores on credit for 30 days, terms may kick in on 30/60/90 days with suppliers.

Unless they can find a cost-effective and reliable method to provide broadband, the old cable and phone conglomerates are going to eat their lunch.

Most of the materials were on float with suppliers, on credit so no cash was really needed at that time.

It's hard on a property to have tenants switching from cable to dish/satellite to broadband at each turn of the property.

We have a standard neutral palette of colours we use in all our rentals - this allows us to purchase paint in 5gal containers and regardless of who gets sent to the supplier for "kitchen" paint, the bring back the same thing.

I am wondering if you had a recommendation for a regional Texas (Houston) bank that provides convenience through technology from basic (online bill pay, ) to advanced (payroll, check scan, etc).Because of my travels, I would prefer to manage payments (to suppliers, to employees, etc) and conduct business more remotely.I would like to avoid bigger banks such as Chase, etcThank you,Mo

He gets them wholesale from a supplier directly.
