In this episode of
List-en up!, we talk to some of the winners of the
Angie’s List Homestead History Contest, in which we asked members to share stories about their homes’ uniqueness. Seth Dewey of Philadelphia told us about his artistic endeavor to renovate a dilapidated loft. Angela Dallo moved from metropolitan New York into a charming storybook house in Irvington, a historic district in Indianapolis. Ruth Housman’s Newton Center, Massachusetts home shares its long history with Timothy Leary and various boarding-house occupants (possibly even a ghost!)

The second episode of
List-en up! is all about etiquette, and how being polite to the people you hire can make your life simpler. Though the highly rated contractors we spoke with have generally had good experiences with Angie’s List members, they do have some stories about rude, obnoxious customers who made life difficult. Peter Post (of the
Emily Post Institute) and several service professionals offer some great tips about common courtesy and how it can ensure a great experience, whether you’re hiring a painter, mechanic, or handyman.
