Property mgr company has general contractor?

[Doug Davis]

I noticed that there are some property management companies that have a general contractor on staff.  

In your experience what are the pros/cons of that vs. picking a contractor myself?

Thanks

Pros: they have a trusted person to do the repairs (assumes the person is good).  For the PM, they can make more money adding in overhead.

Cons: they could be charging you more for repairs
