Hi there. New to the Hartford market and currently evaluating some distressed multi-family units with my agent.
Ultimately going to need a reliable licensed and insured GC who is experienced in working with investors. I'm looking for someone who understands that I'm not looking for "Forever Home" quality renovations, but who I can trust to get the job done well and at a fair price. Would love someone who can offer suggestions on where to spend a little more and where to spend a little less.
Would also like to pay this contractor to take a look at a target-property during or just before closing to get a sense of estimated renovation costs.

I would advise having paying successful flippers in the area an hourly rate to take a look at a target-property during or just before closing to get a sense of estimated renovation costs. Contractors will not commit on a price that you do not own and may not make the effort to even show up.
