Finding a Good Handyman

[Michael Fitts]

My offer was recently accepted on my first property. I'm trying to get all my ducks in a row before I own a property such as people, lease agreements, general knowledge, etc. One person I'll need on my team is a handyman. I'm pretty handy myself but I don't know everything and it may be more convenient to have a professional take care of some issues. My question is: how do you find a handyman in your area and how do you know if they are good or not? Trying to be as prepared as possible for when I own my first property. Thanks!
