Advertise for Repairman for Multi-Family

Has anyone ever advertised for a repair man to fix up some apartments?

I am looking for ideas.   I need a 4plex fixed up all units are vacant.   I want a repair man or woman to move in one of the apartments rent free as he or she fixes up the other 3 apartments.  This will be a barter type agreement.  I have no money and I need someone that has a truck and can get materials to the apartment to fix up the apartments.  This person can also be the property manager.  I am looking for a creative way to do this.  I am thinking of putting Ad in the newspaper to find this repair person.   Need help and ideas.  I am losing out with the vacancies.
