Polk County Handyman & Contractors?
Hey folks - I have about 30 units in Winter Haven and Lakeland, and could use the advice of fellow investors on folks they have used that are honest, trustworthy, and do good work at a reasonable price. ("Reasonable price" being key.) Electrician, plumber, carpenter, roofer all needed. Prefer family-run, long-standing, small operations to bigger companies. (I.e., the company boss and his family are the ones who do the work.)
Also, I need someone who would want to make a few extra bucks ($15/hour) by doing local errands when I'm out of town - someone who keeps keys to all my local properties and lets in contractors or shows units when I'm away. (I'm thinking a handyman might play the dual role of keeping keys and doing small fixes.) If you have any handymen that do a good job on small projects and would be good for the "local errands" role as well, send me a PM.
Thanks all!

I believe you find some really good connections and some reliable referrals if you visit the Polk County REIA meeting. It's the first and third Thursday, every month at 7:00 pm at the 98 North Ramada Inn
