Looking for a contractor

[Maricruz Romero]

Hi BP,

I am currently in search of a contractor for investments I plan to make in Philadelphia through the BRRR strategy. Although I haven't acquired my first property I would like to get aligned with a contractor to facilitate the process once I find a good deal:

- What are some questions I should be asking contractors to determine if I should work with them on my first project? 

- How do I compare different contractors aside from price (because I know cheaper does not mean effective)?  

- What are some things you've experienced that you wish you would have known when looking for a contractor?

- Given that I do not know the extent of the work that will be needed on my first project how do I go about asking for price ranges?

If you have any recommendations on general contractors in Philadelphia please feel free to message me. Thanks in advance!
