You have to know someone extremely well to trust them with the mutual respect that this relationship requires.   

The site has been extremely helpful to me in my pursuit and I'm sure it will do the same for you. 

With the market being extremely competitive we may be looking at doing some pre screenings with these contractors/inspectors so would like to know if they are willing to do those as well and how in depth they can get if we were to bring them to an open house/showing.Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.Thanks!

Obviously, if you cannot get financed or you are triggering some loan covenant, don't do it.  

From my experience (primarily with employees) it is extremely rare that I have thought seriously about firing one and then didn't realize eventually that it was definitely the right choice.

I have been told it's extremely difficult to break into the Mtn Communities.

Pull the trigger on some Zillow advertising, Trulia, etc. and see what works best in your market.

Also, this would be an all-cash sale, so wouldn't have to worry about any mortgage-related issues.Any thoughts/suggestions would be extremely helpful, thanks in advance!

Inventory is low and demand is extremely high.
