As for setting lines well i would go with the man basket if the crane company has one (BTW this all adds to the end price tag of course!)
If no man basket why not just rope and saddle of the hook. You don t have to be attached to the tree, piece it down then boom it over the house. No shock load on the crane so no worry about putting crane on house.
