General HandyMan
I just found out my reliable handyman that I have met through college is moving in the next month. Any ideas on how to track down a good handy man ? I have a property management company in the Jacksonville, FL area that I have started and I need someone affordable, reliable and efficient.
I have tried craigslist but I get so many responses with jokers who are either don't have transportation, over priced or over booked. Just wanting to reach out for some advice.

Why don't you charge more for your services so that you can afford to hire a "reliable and efficient " person? If the prevailing wage in your area is 'X' and you can't afford 'X', perhaps you need to re-examine your business set-up. Just a suggestion...
