When I have had this situation, I communicate well expressing the urgency on my part, provide access to another unit (if I have a vacancy nearby), and may give them a gift card or something for their trouble.

Ultimately I'd like to find a G.C that can handle my projects, from demo to final finish.I'm looking to build a long term relationship with a company that possesses the following: Fair pricing, timely & efficient, communicative, can get the job done on time & on budget.

I even use Skype and TeamViewer to communicate with clients so I'd highly recommend looking for one of the best with great references that interviews well with you.So look for someone you can connect with that works out for your situation.Feel free to ask here if you have questions

Love to communicate with you about Saginaw in general.

You're already in the right place to have the help you are requesting, just keep hopping into these forums and ask questions, read posts and comment and as @Mindy Jensen mentioned, you'll find yourself in communication with local investors who you may be able to do some work with & for over the next couple years to really get your feet wet in the industry.

Just need to be much more careful and conservative in your selection of deals and it requires more discipline, self motivation, and clear communication.

I'll get my GC in there to give me a quote so they know I'm still serious & just keep in constant communication with them.  

@Alfred Clarke Jr The principle that is so critical here is that you communicate to the person what you can do for them not what they can do for you.   

Communication can be frustrating as well.

Also, always proof-read all your communications.
