Where Should I start?

Does anyone has an advise for a lady starting a GC business. I have an el. sub with a license. Where can I start, does anyone need a remodel or construction done with a budget, could do it extra affordable.

You need to start by doing good work for a reasonable price and hoping your happy clients recommmend you to their friends.

But given the massive downturn in real estate going on right now, it seems like a terrible time to start a construction business, but good luck to you.

I have used them. They come right away but are expensive.
