Contractor requesting 50% Upfront
Hello,
I have a contractor that is requesting 50% of what he quoted the job up front. It isn’t a super large sum of money, but I’m curious on what type of things I should do/look for to protect myself. As of now all I have for information on the guy is his phone number.
Thank you!

@Alex Varner generally speaking, when a contractor asks for that much up front, it's because he/she does not have enough money or credit to purchase materials for the job. It's a red flag for me....
