General contractors w/ Airbnb conversion rehab experience

Hey Community - 

We're excited to share that we just closed on a 2-unit multifamily on the north side of Chicago. We plan to house hack and turn one of the units into an Airbnb. Although the building is an older building the unit is in pretty good shape and needs mostly cosmetic rehab/repairs. I'm reaching out to see if anyone can recommend any general contractors that have experience/expertise in light rehabs for converting units into Airbnb properties. We plan to mainly focus on the kitchen and bathroom right now and do additional work down the road as the listing starts to stabilize. 

We are also open to anyone that has any guidance/advice for the best way to approach this stage in our journey to rehabbing our new building as well as anyone that is currently going through the process and has any good hacks that can help us launch our Airbnb quickly. 

We're really excited about this process as we've been following BP for years and it's great to be finally putting all the great advice into action. 

Thanks again for any and all help the community can offer. Happy Holidays!
