What is the best process for shopping around and getting the best contractor to do rehab work at the best price without wasting a ton of time? If I had to meet every contractor in my area (NY/NJ), I would never get the job done...

I just joined my local Chamber of Commerce and attended a Meet 'n Greet breakfast. The man sitting next to me was a licensed contractor. Whoo hoo! I took his card, he gives free estimates. He's been a member for quite a while. I don't know the quality of his work yet but anyone who would join the Chamber and attend meetings is less likely to be a crook I would think.
