- Short Description:
- It’s called Contracting for a reason: Nearly every part of the project is governed by a contract. As a licensed contractor, you’re required to have a written contract with your customer. For most of you, the specialty trades are performed under a contract. For many of you, most if not all of the trades are performed by folks who are not employees; those relationships need to be governed by a contract. Most general contractors in the residential area spend less time building and more time coordinating performance under a contract. This course pulls back the curtain of the contract to take the mystery out. Rather than some mysterious legal document meant to protect you, you’ll discover that every contract, just like the projects it governs, has similar formula – the step-by-step set of instructions for building a successful project. This course breaks down the parts of and explores the importance of using contracts.
