Central Ohio GC

We’ve been enthusiastically searching for our first property to buy and hold. Our focus has been finding a distressed property that we can put some money into renovating and then rent long term. We were surprised to have so much trouble finding a general contractor interested in a whole-house renovation project which is what we are looking at for many of the potential properties we’ve found. It seems that many investors prefer to keep their good GC’s in their back pocket for when they need them. I get that, but I’m at a loss as to how to find GC’s who have a good reputation without asking people for recommendations. So, I’ll keep trying! :) If you have a GC that you’ve enjoyed working with, please let me know!

Thanks!
