Check to see if their trade requires a license. Call Seniors Vs Crime. Check the BBB. Last but not least do not give anyone money upfront. REMEMBER if an uninsured worker is injured on your property, he can own your house with a Lawsuit. Be Smart Not Sorry.

Not true. In FL, you cannot lose your house or your retirement in a lawsuit. A legitimate business person should know this.
Florida is considered one of the best states for asset protection because of its generous creditor exemption laws. Florida law provides unlimited homestead protection and protects tenants by entireties assets, head of household wages, retirement accounts, annuities, life insurance, disability insurance, and more.
