What is your dream contractor?

It's no mystery that every investor has dealt with a bad contractor. Much like property managers and real estate agents, many investors feel that there is a shortage of people in those professions that are actually good. I was raised around the trades and absolutely love the construction aspect of REI. I want to grow a successful construction company that investors love to work with. So with that being said, if you could mold your own general contractor what's the most important qualities to you?

Communication.  

I can rearrange things most of the time if I know if advance.  A good scope of work and a contract that outlines the basic contingencies also is a great help, because I like to know what is going on and how most problems will be dealt with.
