Get bids from other contractors. Why should anyone share in your profits. The whole idea is to recruit qualified contractors who have earned a good reputation, who take pride in their work and want to work for you again, because you pay on time and don't ask for any extras that were not negotiated in the origianl price. You run the job, don't let the subs run you. Make sure you review all insurance coverge and all quotes are in writing in as much detail as possible.
If you can't get references then they should not be considered. Have the supply houses recommend or as has been recommended before go to home depot early in the morning and start recruiting. Good luck

i agree with Karen Margrave, a classified section by topic would make it more of a marketing tool for product or services. The ability to edit and the duration (requirement to refresh) and geographic region for some offerings would also help. I feel this would attract more contributors

Welcome to the BP family. Florida is such an interesting study. The
two coasts are so different and then you have the Miami area market. You certainly need to specialize, to find your niche in the Florida marketplace. I'm truly amazed at how different the Miami market is with so many South American investors involved in the market and then you have Hollywood with the Canadian investors,
it certainly is an interesting marketplace. You will find all the answers with the BP family. Once again welcome aboard.

THe area has a lot to offer; some areas are very good for the Philadelphia market due to the North East Extension others are excellent for the NYC Commuter; a very diverse marketplace. Not too many vacation homes but it certainly is a 4 seasons community; skiing, hunting, boating, casino, etc. and of course the race track.
Prices are all over the place depending on the area. If you have any questions call me or drop me an email.

Welcome to BP, you should be able to get all the help you need on these pages. Your in the high rent district, you should explore Ft Lauderdale, Hollywood or Miami for lower investment vehicles.
Just an opinion.
