Quote from @Sami Gren: HI,I am using a contractor for a full apt gut rehab, I would like to know if anyone has a contractor's contract that I can work off (of course will add or take off accordingly) he is a new contractor, so he doesn't have one,  [I am using him because I have used him for past several years on smaller projects, so I know to trust him.]Thank you A contractor is supposed to be well versed with writing contracts, hence "contractor"AIA (American Institute of Architects) has some good resources.A good tradesmen doesn't always make a good contractor.

Plenty of other opportunities elsewhere, my clients are involved in institutional grade properties across the country. 

Obviously, there are a number of factors such as which financial institution you're dealing with, your details, and the property that change these loan factors around.
