Any contractor referrals in the Albany, NY (Upstate NY) Area?

[Whitney Clay]

Hello everyone,

I recently had my offer accepted on a triplex property located in Albany, NY. The property was a REO and needs some renovations. I am financing this through a FHA 203k loan, and this is my first investment, as well as my first home purchase. I am looking for a general contractor to handle the rehab and was wondering if any BP members had any recommendations? 2 of the units are in great shape, needing only light rehab work (painting, hardwood refinishing, door replacements etc.) while the basement unit is in need of more work (flooring, drywall, some water damage/mold). Outside, there is some cement retaining wall work needed as well as wood siding painting/patching (or possible vinyl siding replacement?). Just looking for GOOD contractor referrals for my first project.

Thank you for any recommendations/help!
