My wife spent some time in Columbus Ohio and ended up purchasing 3 single family homes in some of the working class neighborhoods, now the work begins. 2 of the homes already have tenants in place, I wanted to ask if anyone had recommendations for a Property manager, handyman, contractor, housecleaning services, etc. for the one that is vacant?

I have been calling contractors all week but either they are too busy or aren't professional enough.

As such, I'm interested in working with a contractor that has experience with all aspects of construction, is reliable and used to working with out of state investors (and can provide references), and delivers on the work that was promised. 

□Do you have a team (accountant, attorney, banker, contractor, insurance agent, mortgage broker, property manager, real estate broker, trades) that has experience working with investment real estate?

I tend to offer a little more and can offer a team of contractors ready and willing to work those flips along with quick estimates of rehab costs.

Here’s what you’ll get:+ insider’s view of everything:- what I look for when searching- how I found the properties- what it takes to seal & close the deal- numbers: all things $$$ related- plan: what’s my plan to do with them (with chances to practice/“role play” as if you’re the decision maker)- actual process of renovation: planning, construction cost, materials selection for flips, resources (contractors, subs, architects, supplier houses, etc...)- staging, marketing for sale- listing (diy or hire out, resources, etc...)- and everything else in between+ these are all free of course+ my promise that I won’t sell anything during the process :) so you’re perfectly safe with me!!!

I thought this was part of the federal ADA which would mean that this would be true no matter the state but perhaps I'm wrong.What I'm learning is that it is always best to treat tenants, vendors, contractors, etc as calmly and even handedly, as possible.

Will still be cheaper than hiring contractors to do it all.I know I should probably start working with an accountant but I just want to make sure I'm not shooting myself in the foot tax-wise with anything I do in the next month.

We have had about 10 different Contractors or GC's thru out the 14 flips that we accomplished.
