💥The new year is a great time to overhaul your resources💥 1.Evaluate Current Needs: 🔍 Consider the types of services you frequently require—plumbing, electrical, roofing, and general handiwork are common. 2. Seek Recommendations: 🗣️ Ask fellow agents, clients, and local real estate forums for contractor referrals. Post in here or on social media platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn to get input from your network. 3. Verify Credentials: 📄 Ensure each contractor is licensed, insured, and bonded. Check online reviews and ratings on platforms like Yelp or Google. 4. Interview Prospects: 🤝 Meet with or call potential contractors to discuss their experience, pricing, and availability. This helps set professional expectations. 5. Test with Small Projects: 🛠️ Initially hire contractors for smaller jobs to evaluate their work quality, reliability, and communication skills. 6. Keep Records: 📚 Maintain detailed notes and contact information for each contractor, including the specific services they excel at. 7. Regular Updates: 🔄 Review and update your list annually. Remove contractors who aren’t meeting expectations and add new ones as you expand your network. Follow up with clients who chose to hire someone you recommended and ask their experience. 📣 Interested in getting the full templates for social media posts, what to say when calling for recommendations, and how to approach contractors? 💥Comment below "SCRIPT" and I’ll send over the details! 💥
