So I have 8 units in the city, I also have a full time job and another side business I’m currently trying to get off the ground. I self manage my rentals and that has been fine until recently when 3 units are going vacant and need to be turned over in a few months time. I also have a lot of odd jobs around the properties that could be done at any time but will never get done on my schedule since they aren’t a priority. If anyone is one themselves, has a guy or knows of one who needs some good filler work here and there please let me know. I wont be taking him over or anything. simply random jobs when his time allows. willing to pay what I would consider a fairly good amount ($15/hr) for the ideal candidate. Looking for someone who: Is mechanically inclined Has their own transportation Has at least some tools Would be comfortable with basic carpentry, painting, wall finishing, small kitchen & bath updates, ect. Attention to detail and a keeping a reasonable pace on projects are important to me. Thanks, -Jim ---

I would PM Spanky. He has done some work for me as well as misteroman on here, and is very good, and very trustworthy. He has a full-time job, but I’m sure he could find some time for some side work. ---

Not sure about right now but my cousin does this kind of work on the side (might only be summers since he’s a teacher) but he has a small business called Threshold Renovations LLC. I believe he has a Facebook page, really great work and guy. ---

Everyone with rentals needs a couple of these guys. It’s not worth it to do everything yourself when you have a day job. ---

Would be looking for additional guys as well. I have 65 units and may be leaving state soon and would like to get them perfect to either sell or just not think about for awhile. D
