Best way to find the right contractor
Hi, when investing from afar, what actions would you recommend to take in order to find a good, trustworthy contractor? Thank you.
Finding a good contractor isn't easy, especially when you're not living in the area. But here's my advice:
1. Message local BP members and ask for recommendations
2. Check review sites like Yelp, Angie's List, etc. I don't put much stock in Google reviews as they can easily be faked. Yelp reviews are much harder to fake as they tend to get filtered.
3. Once you find a few verify their license and insurance and then get bids.
I'd also get estimate from Home Depot or lowes as they can be the overseer or take the hit if something goes sideways.
