It's common practice and RD$ 8,000 is chump change for a contractor seeking a nice deal...

Some bid contracts are more stiff asking for 5 to 10% as guarantee...

where is TomF when you need him??? He did a lot of this years ago...

What I can say that with SurFuturo your money is guaranteed. The president is the wife of the owner of Banco Popular.

I hope there is someone out there that can take advantage of this!!
