Greetings, BP Team.I am putting the puzzle pieces together in order to get ready for my first project, and ask that Houston-area investors reach out to me with the names of trusted contractors.Specifically, I am in need of a general contractor that:1. provides estimates of rehab works that come reasonably close to actuals (firm bids would be a plus),2. is able and willing to do cosmetic work as well as studs-deep rehabs,3. has a dependable crew(s) and is known to hit targeted completion dates,4. is knowledgeable of Houston / Harris County permitting and inspection requirements.As this will be the first of a long line of profitable projects, I really appreciate your referrals and any other recommendations that you could lend me.Thanks in advance!

Hopefully a letter from a law firm will get them to change their attitude pretty quickly.

I got free consultation on estate planning but it was from an out of state law firm.

The construction trades or R&D firms are our favorite kind of tenants.
