Hard time finding Central Oregon Coast contractor

[Steve Dunford]

I am a new single family home investor. I have recently purchased a home in Lincoln City Oregon. I believe it will be a successful short term rental vacation home. The home needs to be rehabbed to meet city VRD requirements. I have run home not a problem that I did not plan for. “Coast Time” is a real thing that every local contractor seems to set there watch to. I am on 3 months of trying lock in a contractor to do Plumbing, electrical, and some framing. Everyone I call over promises, no shows, no estimates just verbal and other reasons for not locking in a job. All trades on the Oregon coast say they are 2-3 months out on even doing work. Materials available are the other issue. I’m looking for advice on different ways to talk to contractors to get them out to my job vs all the others. Of course any plumber, electrician, framing reference for Lincoln City would be great but I dint won’t to try same approach on getting estimates. My goal is to have the house up for vacation rent by May 1st now or sooner. Thanks for any advice on sourcing contractors on the Oregon Coast
