        "text": "The process for hiring a general contractor involves several key steps. First, define your project scope and budget. Then, seek recommendations and gather bids from at least three licensed and insured contractors. Review their portfolios, check references, and verify their licensing with the state contractor's board. Discuss their experience with rental properties and their communication style. Finally, ensure a detailed written contract outlining the scope of work, timeline, payment schedule, and warranty before any work begins.",
