Tips for finding good contractor referrals

Posted

Hello everyone

I am looking for a contractor in the Indianapolis area.  Looking to hook up with out of state investors to see what contractors you recommend.  Hoping you can share experiences good and bad to help me make a good choice.   


Thanks in advance!

Tyler

@Tyler Livingstone I see you have a response already but you should absolutely be leaning on other, local real estate investors on who they use.  None of this going on the internet stuff...that will lead to a disaster.  Use contractors that other investors have already worked with.  It's not foolproof but it will help limit the risk here.  If those contractors above work out, great.  If you want to continue to search, then join some Indiana/Indianapolis real estate investor group pages on facebook and ask other investors there.  You'll probably have some contractors say "use me" type of thing.  I appreciate people trying to earn business but you need to work through references if you are following me.  Thanks!
