Yah I have a repair guys that's pretty reliable.

I have tried apps like Angi and  Homeadvisor and got bombarded with so many calls and didnt find anything reliable. 

I just got off the phone with Bank of America and they are offering horrible HELOC conditions. Does anyone have a bank in/near Sacramento they go to for financing? I'm seeking to get a HELOC so I can begin my real est...

I am a travel nurse and finding housing is the hardest part of the job as you sign a 3 month contract and have about 14 days or less to find furnished reliable housing so needless to say we’re generally desperate and need to find a mid term lease ASAP or we’re screwed. 

And there were a bunch of others that we realized were not reliable and we no longer call on them. 

I'm sure you all know that it's hard at best to find reasonably priced and reliable outfits. 

I am a new investor in Mauldin, SC outside of Greenville remodeling a walk-out basement into an apartment.I have immediate need of good, strong, reliable vendors and contractors that aren't going to make these inflationary times feel even worse.  

@Anna Washburn i prefer hard money. i think there is more scalability. of course, if you had a crazy high HELOC with millions of dollars available at a low rate, maybe it is a different story. short of that, hard money is quick and easy and the reimbursement on the rehab is great. if you can find a reliable lender that is half the battle. one of the great things we do is if you can get a property where the purchase and rehab is under 70% of the ARV, then we can finance it 100%. hard to beat that!

I have a couple friends who live in the city who also own rental properties, and I've been slowly building up a great team of reliable contacts in different trades.

I think if your friend has a reliable history then this would make it easy but if not I wouldn't have trouble even going there.
