Hire a New GC or Self-manage your own subs?

[Sawyer Dina]

Hey fellow investors, I need your help. In your experience what have you found more value in doing; finding the right GC or giving control to yourself and managing your own subs for various portions of the renovation?

I have been in this dilemma for a few years now and flipped several properties using a number of general contractors. So far, not a single GC has really made the cut in my mind. They hire cheap ineffective labor, cut corners, and take way too long. Am I better off hiring the subs myself and managing the project to completion or finding the right GC for the job?

Any advice is welcomed because this seems to be my biggest pain-point in my business right now. Thanks in advance!
