Looking for a good contractor in SW Portland area

Hello everyone.  I'm looking at a potential investment property in Newberg, OR.  The home is over 100 years old and I want to go through it with an experienced contractor so that  I can get an idea of how much work needs to be done on the home.

Does anyone have a good contractor that they could recommend for me to use?

Does anyone with experience rehabbing homes this old have tips/advice to offer?

Thanks for all your help!

Patrick, I will recommend Daniel McNabb, Ambience Remodeling.  You should be able to reach him via BP  

@Daniel S McNabb .  He's easy to work with but is very busy.  Regarding the age of the house, watch out.  I think Daniel will recommend an hourly NTE type contract because you never know what you are going to find.  Have a healthy contingency budget.  

I hope you are going to the next BP open house or Rare Bird Investment Network.  I'd love to meet you since Newburg is in my targeted area.

    Patrick. 

    I've found contractors on homeadvisor.com in the past. You can use that website or similar websites.

    Hi Patrick,

    Thanks @Phillip Pommier for the mention, yes we are very busy. However, I'm lining up work for 60 days from now and can take a look at your house with you.  I have some great plumbing and electrical subs otherwise my own employees do the work.  I couldn't look at anything until next week though. 

    Let me know,

    Daniel
