They have offered us there tax ID number so show us they are a legitimate business but I dont know how to get any info with that. Does any body know anything about anything like this. HeLp????

This sounds like a scam to me.

Also, I would caution folks not to post their e-mail addy on this or other sites. You can send a DM to a poster with your e-mail address instead.

hello how are you? i am looking into starting a business like this as well. i have contacted a friend who is a real estate agent and she said that there is a huge market for this and that she will use me for that and estate homes as well. i was wondering if you could share anything with me, ads or anything that i may be able to use. I am in new jersey so no worries on being in your neck of the woods. have you started cleaning any houses? if so how is it going?

Hi,

I am a C33 licensed and trained decorative wall finisher (Italian Plasters and Faux Finish). I am like many others who needs to venture into another direction because my business is down and does not look like it will be back for at least a year.

I am researching the Foreclosure Cleanout biz since I figure I can offer cleanouts as well as painting. Having a hard time getting answers. Was told I will need a business license, however I would want to at least market an entire county or a number of cities. I was told today I would have to get a license for each city I wanted to work in...that does not seem right. What are others doing with regards to this. Also how much liability insurance and bonding is needed?

I see people saying there is little to no start-up cost but as I am making a list of what is needed with all the licensing and insurance, tools, supplies, dumpster, website domain, etc. it is a bit of money to initially invest.

Any input greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
CCM
