Hello folks,So, we've all had our troubles with no-shows, etc. and everyone has their own system to mitigate it.  

Any advice on how to mitigate these concerns/risks?

My home insurance pays for the water mitigation and rebuild but refuses to pay for the plumbing repair.

Keep in mind there are hoops to jump through, and you need to keep your documents organized and preferably electronic so you can provide them AGAIN when they ask for something a 3rd time, but the extra little bit of aggravation can easily be mitigated by being organized and it is ABSOLUTELY worth the savings.

The initial “book” education should be completed before “doing” so that you mitigate the risk involved with a far more valuable education, the education associated with “DOING”. 

Please provide feedback and ways to mitigate risks associated with moving to say class C neighborhoods or working in a city with severe winters.

I only use the TREC forms on my purchases and sales and revise them as necessary using language my attorney drafted as well as language I've formulated over the last 17 years to address specific deficiencies in the promulgated form (waivers, disclosures, mitigation of litigation, etc.).
