It is important to look for a contractor that is licensed and insured to handle REO Rehab and Preservation. Since the large increase in foreclosures and REO's, a lot of companies have come out advertising services for REO Preservation, REO Rehab, and Foreclosure Maintenance, but many do not have the proper license and insurance to work on the properties. Many contractors let their insurance expire in order to save costs, but still advertise as having it. I recommend all realtors, asset managers, and REO professionals ask for proof of license and insurance before hiring someone to work on a property.
It is best to hire a licensed and insured General Contractor with experience in the REO industry.
If you would like to find out more information about an REO Rehab contractor in Tampa Bay, please contact Hybrid Construction LLC as www.hybridgc.com.

Chinese Drywall Inspections
Conducting a chinese drywall inspection can involve or require a
number of techniques to determine whether or not the home has been built
with chinese drywall. A home can have different levels of exposure
including full house, partial house, or only a few sheets of chinese
drywall. It all depends on when it was built and which supply was used
during drywall shipments. Some of the techniques used to determine the
level of chinese drywall contamination include, but are not limited to:
- Inspect all copper wiring for blackening or corrosion
- Inspect HVAC piping and coils for blackeing or corrosion
- Inspect drywall joints and labeling for manufacturer.
- Conduct air quality testing
- Remove drywall samples and perform quality tests
Hybrid Construction LLC performs Chinese Drywall inspections on a regular basis and keeps up with the current regulations, codes, and techniques for remediation.
Inspections typically take between 1-2 hours depending on the size of the home and range in cost from $150-$225, depending on location and house size. Each report includes a detailed summary of the inspection and findings, approximate remediation costs (if necessary) as well as numerous photos of each area inspected.

Benefits of a Contractor Property Inspection
This
article was originally intended to be for REO/Foreclosure properties,
however it can relate to any real estate
situation. Whether it be for
residential or commercial, many people can benefit from the information
we can provide,
including:
- Buyers during due diligence
- Agents handling bank inventory
-
Brokers
- Owners
- Real Estate Investors
We
make an effort to make sure
our contractor inspections are more
than just an estimate. Commercial and Residential properties are both
assessed differently
and each can have a different level
of inspection detail, from brief to thorough, depending on the situation
and the needs
of the client. Budgets are usually a
critical part of any real estate decision, so we try to provide an
estimate tailored
to each property and each situation
requested by the Owner/Agent. This allows us to be a stronger asset to
the client.
Some of the benefits our clients
receive include:
- Safety/Hazard Concerns
- Remodeling/Rehab
Recommendations
- Repair Recommendations
- Detailed Property Photographs
- 3rd Party Consultant
Coordination
- Schedules
- Budgets/Estimates (Itemized, Phased, Forecast, etc...)
We
are sure that our inspections will
provide great value to your property at an affordable cost. The
importance of being
flexible for each client ensures
that we can provide a personal and property specific inspection. It
will help fill
in the missing information that
everyone seems to ask about any property. More importantly, it will
help people make
decisions.
