1923 Portland Fixer

[Eamon Keating]

My wife and I are in the process of purchasing a 1923 Portland Fixer. We will make it our primary residence after some renovation on the property. I am looking for local contractors or subcontractors for the house. We will need to possibly rewire the house (knob and tube), upgrade the panel (100 amp), redo the kitchen (cabinets, tile floor, add a dishwasher) and a variety of other tasks. We are interested in both general contractors that are licensed, bonded and insured to GC the project. We are also interested in GC'ing it ourselves and hiring the subcontractors. Looking for suggestions on how/where to spend the budget for the house. Where is the best place to get materials in the area while keeping it budget friendly. Looking for ideas how to tackle the project.
