How to Check a Construction Company
- Completion history: how many complexes were delivered and whether recent phases were on time.
- The legal method of protecting buyers' money — a guarantee from the single housing construction operator, a commercial bank's participation or sales after the frame is built.
- The permit to raise buyers' funds for the specific complex — a company may have a good reputation while a project is structured differently.
- Quality of operation in occupied buildings — residents' reviews and the management company's work.
- The shared-participation agreement — deadlines, liability for delays, apartment specifications.
