Also, hard money lenders want a scope of work filled out prior to funding the deal so this is a good little hack to get one as well. 

How  do i know the contractor not cut corner, the seller refuse to disclose the scope of work done, and the contractor said he won't reveal it without seller permission, so they are basically say we won't give you any information beside invoice, other figure it out yourself with your own money, we don't' have obligation.

The scope of work included:•Interior: Major pest remediation that took 3-4 weeks.

I'm sure there are many more experiences where the contractor hasn't fulfilled their scope of work and gotten away with rushing the project to meet the deadline, And, I don't want to be as naive to say that I'm that 1% who can have complete quality/operational control, but I'm confident I can establish a system and hire independent inspectors to review the contractor's work. 

With no direction from an Engineer (or Architect) Contractors have no idea and will price out the scope of work they think is best even if it's not the best option. 

I’m still learning the ropes of property management, so I really appreciate the opportunity to exchange ideas.At our property, we have a structured screening policy influenced by the Federal Fair Housing Act since our location falls under its scope.

This property has some one-of-a-kind qualities namely a nice creek with inbound and outbound waterfalls at each end of the property (its on a hill w creek canyon).I've gotten the septic scoped and certified, well is good, power needs to be reinstalled as property was abandoned years ago.

At the point that we step into the role of confirming zoning, we are actually stepping outside the scope of our license as we are not experts in that area.
