Due to growth in Columbus Ohio, I am looking to expand my team of trusted contractors.I have 4 Apartments that need Major reconstruction workI have ground works, where I want to build a Parking lot and fence in a propertyI have general repairs that need to be done in some ApartmentsI have 2 Apartments that need to be rehabbed ready for new tenantsAnd I am looking for Lawn care, ground maintenance in general etc.Does anyone have some trusted people that they could recommend and would be willing to share their contact details my way?

I've just begun to look into the process of getting them authorized... from what I've read so far it sounds like a complete "reconstruction" is needed. 

I am talking here about future value of the properties and how can they appreciate or not in time (I am aware of the risks of bad tenants, but that’s another story) and/or what to look at or not when choosing a neighborhood or studying a deal.Also, to seek opinions from people within the US and, even more, people living in Detroit, to see if the hype that the city has been having (at least here) as a good opportunity to invest and expect a huge rebirth of the city in terms of jobs and population growth is justified or just hype.I also want to seek opinions regarding the amount of investment the city has been having in terms of buying and reconstructing houses: does it match the actual need for single family homes or there are more houses available than the people looking to rent them?

Loss of use coverage only comes in to effect when there is a covered loss and the home is uninhabitable during the reconstruction.
