Landlord, Tenant & Industry Concerns

LISTEN...


Landlord Concerns: The landlord is directly responsible for hiring a contractor, using some of the following considerations:

  • Does the contractor have relevant experience?
  • Are bidding contractors required to carry cost for scheduling and potentially remobilizing to work with occupied units?

Tenant Concerns: In some cases, tenants may be involved in the contractor selection process.

  • How has the contractor managed complicated sites with multiple stakeholders in the past?
  • Ask about worker codes of conduct.

Industry Concerns: The contractor has the ability to deliver the project smoothly and with outcomes that directly improve the health and housing quality of tenants.

  • Understand the site well before bidding
  • Review success stories
  • Confirm assumptions about means, methods and access prior to submitting your bid.
