Make sure whoever is doing it is properly licensed/insured and that there's someone on the hook if something goes wrong and the demolition/construction damages your property.

I was forced out of one of my apartments due to work next door - there was a foundation being dug and they didn't properly reinforce the sidewall to my building and it cracked. All the hallways and door frames in my building were super angled, it felt like I was walking through fun house. The real estate company doing the construction paid for my accommodations and expenses for a while until I found a new place which was nice, but still the situation sucked badly.
