I have a fourplex in the Marcy-Holmes neighborhood just west of I-35W. I want to remodel one unit at a time. Please recommend electricians, plumbers, and remodelers.

    Hey @Gregory R Ley, afternoon!  I'm assuming since you came here for referrals that this is your first project, please correct me if that is not the case.  Would love to hear more about your deal and what it's going to take to make it good for you.

    I have trusted contractors I can recommend, but I don't just hand them out to anyone randomly because it was a good deal of work to find and build relationships with contractors I know and trust and I'd like to keep it that way.  

    That said, I'm happy to talk about the project and make some recommendations - please just DM me.  I highly recommend to any clients or new investors that they build these relationships from the beginning as their deal literally depends on it if there's an element of rehab to making it work.  

    I also recommend you refer to the recent BP rookie podcast episode (2 parts) with James Daynard which talks about this exact topic in depth, including ways to find, vet, and build relationships with good contractors as well as some of the ways you can anticipate things going well and going poorly.  Anytime you incorporate some type of rehab into your deal you want to plan ahead for this.

    good luck, reach out anytime!
