Reviewing Bids and Breaking Down Prices

[Scott Vaeth]

Hello BP! I am gathering contractor bids at the moment on a property I'm trying to BRRRR. I received a partial itemized bill from a contractor where multiple tasks are grouped together. Ex: Installing Kitchen, Electrical, and Plumbing. Would it be a good idea to have the contractor break this down further? By individual tasks and hours it'll take to complete these tasks? I'd like to work with this contractor, but the numbers feel high as they stand. Once I have more bids in I'll be able to compare everything more. Any advice would be appreciated!
