Happened to a friend. Got several quotes on putting an addition on the house, went with the lowest, which was thousands cheaper than the others (red flag). Guy came, excavated for the foundation and poured them. Never came back. Like, disappeared. They made the mistake of giving the guy ALL the money up front, and they never saw him again. That was about 12 years ago and they now have a foundation surrounded by a four foot hole behind their house. Haven’t been able to get the money together to get it finished, as they gave him all the money up front… trying to sell The house, but people don’t even bother because they’d have to finish it.
