New work agreement

It's obvious that the developer's supervisor Martin isn't doing a good job at all, and I'm sick of this all hanging over my head and working to their schedule.

A neighbour passed on her handyman's details, so I contacted the developer about the remaining work on my list of defects and suggested that I get a quote for the lot and submit to to him for approval, then co-ordinate the work myself.

He agreed. I then asked him to put it in writing that he would reimburse me if I pay for the work, as most workers here expect cash and are not willing to submit an invoice  and wait for payment sometime in the future. Yes, he agreed to that too.

So I can call Jose today and go over the whole condo with him to make a list, then he will organise his men and get the work done. With a bit of luck and maybe another week, the condo will be perfect. I do have a 12-month window in which to have any defects repaired, but I'm aware that while I have the engineer working and agreeing, it's best to get it all done now, as he may not be so agreeable in 10 months' time.
