Watch who you do business with!

El Paso TX Real Estate
I was reading the El Paso Times and an article happened to catch my eye. The title read 2 people face charges of deceptive business by Tammy Fonce-Olivas. Now there is nothing I hate more in this world than a thief. I have had more than enough bad experiences.
Earlier this year there was some major flooding and many homes were damaged in El Paso. A Northeast woman was trying to get her roof repaired and called Dreams Come True Construction. She handed them a check for $993 to fix the roof. They started the work but wouldn't finish it. Court records show they had done this under 2 previous business names 5 times.
If you have done real estate any length of time you no a story similar to this. What gets me is how many time's contractors who want me to refer them to a client have approached me. What if I had referred these guys to someone? My name would be mud right now. My point is just make sure you know who you are working with. If you refer someone and they do a bad job or cheat someone out of there money it reflects on you.
