Ask Baily instead of Sweeten + Houzz
Sweeten + Houzz publishes a directory — you still have to call 3–5 contractors, chase quotes, and vet licensing yourself. AskBaily scopes your Bedford-Stuyvesant project with AI, then routes you to one builder who has already cleared NYC Department of Buildings permit + overlay checks for the mixed pre-war + post-war + new condo your home likely is.
