We just closed on a house and work needs to be done (Oil to Gas conversion and finishing basement). This probably will require 2 groups of people to work in the span of 4-6 weeks. Would it be safe to give the people the keys to the house (vacant) and expect them to do no evil? Please advise..this is our first purchase. We just want to know what the best (normal) way would be, safety concerns and also to make sure they are doing their job. We do not currently live close by the new house.. it will take us 1 hr to go there. Plus we work the 9-5 schedule. Thanks
