Android Studio build error: failed to find Build Tools revision 19.0.0

I'm trying to import a project into Android Studio and I get the following error:

failed to find Build Tools revision 19.0.0.

Looking at the SDK manager, I have the following build tools installed: 17, 18.1.1 and 19.

Here is my build.gradle file:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.6.+'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'android'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

android {
    compileSdkVersion 17
    buildToolsVersion "19.0.0"

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 17
    }

    buildTypes {
        release {
            runProguard true
            proguardFile getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt')
        }
    }

    productFlavors {
        defaultFlavor {
            proguardFile 'proguard-rules.txt'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {

}

When I change the build version to 17.0.0, it comes back as an error that I don't have 17.0.0. I've compiled other projects using build version 17.0.0.

Any ideas

It seems I didn't have the local.properties file in the project folder. Adding it got the project imported (and compiled) successfully.

In the file should be something like: 

sdk.dir=C\:\\Users\\kristy.welsh\\AppData\\Local\\Android\\sdk
