Looking for your favorite Contractors

[Tyrell Proby]

Hello all, I hope you are having a beautiful day. I wanted to reach out and ask, What are your favorite ways to find contractors in your area minus the Google Search? 

[David Sandvig]

Besides Google, my brokerage has a list of preferred vendors (usually a running list of vendors other agents have had good experiences with).  I've also looked at Angie's list, word of mouth, and met people at Meet Ups.  I still like Google though!

My MO is usually to find three that I think will be good, call all three, get quotes, and go with the one that I have the best feeling about.  If I like them, they're my go to in the future.  If I don't like them, I call three the next time.  At this point I've got a go-to HVAC company, plumber, electrician, and few others that I'll go straight to.
