Roofing

Reitz Roofing

Bernie Reitz

Bernie came highly recommended by another agent some 10 years ago.  I can´t count how many times I´ve used him in a transaction and had the other agent say "Oh good, you use Bernie too." When someone in this industry is trusted by agents metro-wide, that´s saying something. Bernie keeps projects on track through his timeliness, professionalism, rates, and most important, the quality of completed work. A roof is an extremely common objection item upon inspection and can usually be negotiated for the seller to repair even for the fix-and-flip. You´ll want to insist the seller uses Bernie.

Tile Installer

McKay´s Tile Works

Rick McKay

A well-laid tile floor (vs. vinyl) can add dollars to your sale.  I´ve seen some really bad tile jobs -- they can detract from the sales price because ripping out tile can be difficult.  If you´ve done tile before--great. If not, Rick is a terrific (fill in) contractor for floors, shower stalls, granite counters--you name it!  Choose your tile from Tile for Less at 52nd and Wadsworth and get Rick´s volume discount. An employee there once told me, "Rick is the only installer I let put tile in my personal residence."  A pretty good recommendation don´t you think?

General Contractor

Hermelink Construction

George Hermelink

Most successful fix-and-flip investors do at least some of the work themselves. If you´re absolutely all thumbs when it comes to repair, you´ll need a competent, honest general contractor. Those words describe George perfectly. He can also be utilized as a good "fill ? in" contractor. For example, you can let George finish that basement while you make the main level fabulous.
