I feel your pain! My girlfriend and I bought a new house when we moved to Canada 5 months ago, the basement was unfinished but that didn't bother me since I got a great deal on the house and the basement was HUGE and just what I wanted.
I've had 6 people out to give me quotes to finish from top to bottom, probably looking at spending $25,000 by the time all is said and done... 1 person gave me a quote but only after 4 weeks of me hassling them and then quoted waaaaaaaay too much, another guy who seemed cool and was actually a referral from someone in our office promised to email me a quote but 2 weeks later still hasn't. Other people have just blew me off too... it's not a big job for a professional company, but it seems no one needs the work!
I think I might have finally found someone by accident who lives round the corner from me, he built his own house and I can reference that when checking his work. Here is hoping anyway.
