The Three Risks of the 'Gig Economy'

💸

Hidden Title Clouds

Unpaid sub-contractors can file claims against your property title. You wont know until you try to sell or refinance your Minneapolis home, effectively freezing your asset.

📉

Resale Deal Killers

Savvy buyers in Minneapolis ask for permit history. Unpermitted additions or decks are flagged by inspectors, often forcing you to lower your asking price by thousands.

Liability Roulette

If an uninsured worker falls off your ladder, **your** homeowner's policy is on the hook. Verified Pros carry Workers' Comp to protect you from medical lawsuits.
