I would like to know how to find good, reliable contractors or individuals that do home repairs and light remodeling for my sellers who need to have a few things done to get their homes ready for marketing.
Your best bet is to ask around and get referrals from friends....ask on facebook and I bet your friends will make some suggestions. Ask other agents in your office or your broker. Also try Angies list or your local paint store.
Home Contractor/Handyman would be Fineline Construction 281 364-7788, Jose Gandarillas 713-857-8639. Several of my agents have used them, but I haven't.
a reliable handyman whom you can call anytime to get a job done is a key part of a realtor. I have multiple folks who help me out on various stuff. But if you one guy who can do lot of stuff, I would recommend Jan Merklin (281) 667-9410 who charges reasonable and take care of things quickly.
Good "handymen" and contractors are very difficult to find, and keep. And the best way to find somebody is by asking just like you did. I have 2 guys who are really good. They both can do minor to major work. Brandon Moody at 281-731-8484 and Mark Maddox 936-520-1338. I don't know what part of town you are in, but these guys work everywhere from Houston to Huntsville.
