Working with a family member contractor
I’m conflicted about asking my family member to be my actual contractor or to ask him to act as a consultant/overseer of my rehab project.
He is a busy man and highly sought out in his profession. Also, I’ve seen his work and he is the best I know. He has always had my best interests at heart which is why I thought of him as someone who can make sure the team I hire or he hires, sticks to the schedule and does quality work. I’m leaning toward this so I can free up my time. I wouldn’t want to under pay him as a contractor because we are family and he’s doing me a favor. What are your thoughts?
