Reply to Property owners of NJ, what has your experience been like finding and working with contractors recently? Is the nationwide labor shortage noticeable labor in your area? by [deleted]
We were fortunate to had purchased a newly renovated, gutted inside and outside home this past August.
By choice we had the entire interior repaired since I hated the color but other than that we only need electrical work to get a Tesla charger into the garage and that's it.
I'm so glad we didn't go the route of purchasing a home just to have it worked on because of these contractor issues. Definitely didn't need the headaches so we were very fortunate.

We were very fortunate since most of the other homes we saw did need some kind of work and whatnot thus we needed to find a contractor as well.
Since the house was gutted in and out and the seller renovated it for more than a year it worked out for us to have a move in ready home.
I feel for those needing a contractor since it's as if you're at their mercy and they can pick and choose the jobs they'll accept. Good luck and best wishes.
