Hey BP family, I have a Reno loan in under writing and will be hopefully find my first property to flip within 20 days. With this renovation loan I'll need a licensed contractor to submit bids and reno cost. Does anyone have any recommendations in the New Orleans area ? Thanks in advance

I can give you a recommendation. Send me a PM and I'll get you a couple names to get bids from.

You need to get a scope of work together and have each contractor bid on that same scope. If you just get a couple bids, each contractor will have different things in their estimate. If you have them bid the same scope they are all bidding the same thing. That way you're comparing apples to apples.
