Whitney Hill of SnapADU: How We Are Helping To Make Housing More Affordable

Medium – Jason Hartman

Don’t force it. If it doesn’t come easily, it may not be the right time to handle it. I used to force myself to do specific tasks even if I didn’t want to; I would often end up “fighting” it and taking longer than I really needed to. Now when I’m not motivated by something, I move to something else. By delaying the task, I may gain more context that makes it feel easier to do… or simply decide it is unnecessary.

Record Number of Home Repair Complaints Made to Better Business Bureau: What’s Going On?

Realtor.com

Who do you call when your contractor has swindled you during a renovation? The BBB, of course. The Better Business Bureau is a nonprofit organization that “promotes trust between businesses and consumers.” The BBB also offers dedicated resources for homeowners, which can come in handy for those seeking to undertake repairs or renovations. A home is a significant investment, and being scammed or dealing with poor practices can cause a lot of frustration. As the BBB assigns ratings to businesses, its tools can help you navigate the costly endeavor of hiring contractors. And homeowners are taking that to heart. For instance, the South Carolina BBB recently noted that “disputes over home improvement projects have reached record highs in the Upstate,” according to local station 7News. But what’s causing the increase in complaints and how can you make one if need be? Let’s dive in.
