Don’t let any contractors into your house until you’ve lived there for at least a few months, and learn how to recognize high pressure sales pitches from them. They’ll take advantage of you if you don’t.
Holy fuck, what shit advice.

Please finish your thought. Let me get you started:

“Because…”

It’s the first part that I don’t agree with. There’s zero reason to not hire a contractor in the first weeks of owning a new place. Assuming due diligence, you should know prior to closing what areas might need attention.
A lot of times you won’t know what needs attention until you’ve lived in the house long enough. Not everything is immediately obvious.
