How much to pay contractor for cosmetic renovations?
How much do you typically pay contractors for cosmetic renovations? Typically, I sub everything out and average $15,000 - $22,000 unit for full cosmetic renovations. Here, I want to delegate this job to a contractor to supervise, pay, manage subcontractors but I'm having trouble coming up with a fee.
There's 18-units for this particular project and I want to throw other units at the contractor once I purchase. Is 10% of cost reasonable? Thanks,
Tony
