Contractor Recommendations Albany NY

[Meghan Cheek]

Hi BP community!

I'm a newbie investor.  My husband and I recently purchased our first two family in Albany and we are currently house hacking in one unit.  Our tenant is moving out in April and we would like to renovate the unit's kitchen and possibly the bathroom too.  We're looking for any recommendations or referrals for contractors.  If you have any personal experiences to share all all the better!  

Also have another side note question.  We want to post the unit and get it rented asap, but since we plan to renovate, should we wait until the work is complete in order to show the property at it's best?  Or should we explain in the posting the work we plan to do?  Want to minimize vacancy as much as possible.

Thanks!
