How to find the best company for your project

Finding A Construction & Building Company

Finding a contractor can be a stressful process for any real estate investor and can take a lot of vetting before a reliable contractor is found. Part of the process is making sure to ask potential contractors the right questions before they are hired. Here are some questions you can ask a contractor before choosing the right one for you:

  • Is your company insured with adequate coverage?
  • How long have you been in business?
  • What is your license number?
  • How much should the project cost?
  • What is your timeline for this project?
  • How will additional costs be handled?
  • Is there any warranty on the work you provide?

Find a Hard Money Lender Near You

A hard money loan is an asset-based loan that is not contingent on a credit score. One of the biggest factors affecting the approval of a traditional loan is your credit history and income, which can be bypassed by a private money loan. Lenders want a candidate that possesses a reputable re-payment history because this demonstrates the consumer’s ability to repay loans. If you are looking for a hard money loan we encourage you to search in the directory to find a hard money lender near you. For more information on hard money lenders we encourage you to visit our hard money lenders page.
