I am lucky enough to have a very trusted certified contractor who's very respected, in my family, and we had him do an estimate for repairs which totaled roughly 65 thousand.

(LOL) No seriously he is extremely knowledgeable. 

She trust me and I trust her however we want to do this correctly.

Then we’d have them rent from us at an IRS-acceptable reduced rent (20% below market rent) which would provide more secure housing for them as we’d never evict them and trust them with our property.

The most important thing is working with people you begin trust, so do your due diligence on any of the areas you decide to go. 3.

Bottom line is there is zero room for trust in the world.

The problem I’m having is the house is in a Living Trust.

I am extremely proud of our diverse and substantial multi-cultural employee and subcontractor base of staff.

I have one major requirements for my property manager and that is he is to contact and use my trusted and vetted handymen for all non emergency repairs and maintenance calls.

Do not assume anything will get done by others until you get trusting of them especially those things you are responsible for.
