It’s Good to Know People who Know People

In the past month, I’ve either used or referred:

a landscape clean up crew
weed control services
pool service guys
carpet and tile guys
concrete floors and countertop guys
countertop and cabinet providers
termite services
pest and packrat control services
painters
roofers
electricians
plumbers
sewer camera inspections
home inspectors
home cleaning services
handymen
licensed contractors
dumpster providers
property managers
wall and fence builders
window and glass replacement

After being in the business for a while, and having remodeled a couple of homes on my own, it’s amazing the number of quality resources that one accumulates. Most of those folks know me by name, and I know that I can send them to a client’s house, and the job will be done impeccably, that they’ll show up on time, do what they say they’ll do, and clean up afterwards.

You need a dumpster? Jack’s your man.

Weeds need to be pulled, and the plants trimmed? Alberto and Iscela do the best work I’ve ever seen in that department. Send in Ron afterwards to make sure those weeds don’t come back.

Plumbing gone askew? You need Wayne.

Feeling good about picking a Realtor who can help you with the house after the sale? Well… maybe not priceless, but pretty darn close.
