Welcome to the Restoration Domination Podcast Episode 041 With your Host, Rico Garcia Jr. In our very FIRST Legal Corner Episode, which is one of two bonus episodes a month we will be doing. Today we are joined by Brittany Alexander Esq. AKA Lawyer Britt. with Premier Property Law. In this episode, we discussed the differences between Services contracts, work auths, AOBs, letters of protection, when to use which, how to create the best file, and dos and don't of contracts.

What We Talk About

  • AOBs
  • LOPs
  • Services Contracts
  • When You Should Use Which Kind
  • What Should Always Be In Your Contract So It's Not Invalid
  • What Should Never Be In Your Contract So It's Not Invalid
  • How to Create a Glorious File

Biggest Takeaways

  1. AOB, Work Auth, Letter of Protection or Services Contract and when to use which 
  2. There are things that should be added or removed so your AOB isn’t invalid. Having mortgage processing fees and/or leaving out the rescission provision can make your AOB invalid.
  3. There is a big lack in systems for turning in contracts on time
  4. Keep track of as much as you can in the way of documenting timelines, communication, etc.
