Obviously, your reputation (credit report) may carry weight with them.Dunno if the REI education you invested in covered any of that, but it's worth learning about.

You may even get to shop around, which is not an option here as far as I can tell- most well-reputed contractors are booked out months or more, and I'm calling in favors from friends to get even minor tasks done on time  :(

My first step if I were you would be to find a banker in the city you are moving to that has a good reputation.

I am looking for a licensed and insured reputable contractor for tiling 2 bedrooms and renovating a bathroom in a high rise condominium on the beach.

What are reputable stats I should pay attention to?

So, if you're opting to save money and go a route like Fiverr for designing it; putting a little thought into what exactly you'd like for them to create seems like the least you can do.Although I can't say that I trust a Fiverr GD artist to completely design the single most important symbol in my company's existence, I do think that the site is an awesome way to get some fresh ideas that you can have a more reputable graphic designer (whom you're hopefully paying slightly more than $5) run with.

If I were you I would have a reputable company come out and do a heat load.

Ive noticed that this business is revolved around marketing, along consistency and volume and success and reputation will come!  

Erik has a good reputation for turnkey properties within the Realtor community in Louisville.  

Their time and reputation are their most valuable assets, but I've found that shockingly many realtors are also incredibly patient, helpful, and supportive if they think you're the real deal.
