Ok I'm new to the field but u already invested Nd have two properties my biggest issues has been the contractors their quality of work has been a nightmare.

Contractors- I am looking for a reliable contractor who can estimate time and budget precisely, and make things done on time and on budget.

I hired a contractor to install a new A/C unit for $4,000.

This depends a little bit on whether the trash is handled by the city or private contractors, and also whether the custom in that city is to keep the trash cans "hidden" when not in use (like, in the backyard, or in the garage), but: if you can't see any trash cans around the side of the house or at the corner of the garage, or in the driveway on trash day, whereas the neighbors' houses do have trash cans in those locations, maybe nobody is living there. 

But now I am looking to spend less time working on these projects and more with my family. plumbing, electrical ,carpentry any contactors in North Eastern Pa (scranton area)you are willing to share is appreciated

Does anybody know of trustworthy contractor in the Snohomish County area?

I didn't know anything about rehabs but taught myself to lay floors, tile a bathtub, paint cabinets, paint walls, basic plumbing, you name it.

Finding a contractor you trust and who does quality work is the biggest factor, but this is hard to do from afar and referrals may be your best bet.

I only rent to refinery contractors with a per diem
