Credit in lieu of repairs

[Cameron Moore]

I am purchasing a home at $205k and have 6,300 coming back to me as a credit in lieu of repairs (wrote up in an addendum.) The addendum states that the check for 6,300 is to be made to a contractor of my choice. I don’t want to pocket the money, but I do want to subcontract everythIng myself. - Can I be my own contractor? (longshot I know) - if not, is there a way I can get the money instead of having to hire someone?
