Several weeks ago, PCRI sought bids from General Contractors to rehabilitate 11 of our single-family affordable rental homes.  We have since met with several interested General Contractors–these GCs are now seeking subcontractors with whom to partner on the rehabilitation projects.  Albina Construction is one of the interested General Contractors; the notice they provided for subcontracting opportunities is below.  PCRI has not yet selected a General Contractor to perform this work; notices for other subcontracting opportunities (and from other interested General Contractors) will be posted when they are received by PCRI.

In the preparation of our general contracting bid, Albina Construction LLC will soon be accepting bids for subcontracted work on the PCRI “Big 11″ project.  We welcome your participation.

The PCRI “Big 11″ project is a scattered site rental renovation project.  If we are selected as the General Contractor, we will be remodeling eleven homes for PCRL The project uses a mix of HUD funds and urban renewal funds from the City of Portland.
