Look for vendor for repairs myself or thru PM?

[Tony Huang]

Hi BiggerPockets,

Recently I've got a quote from my property manager for fixing mold issues in roof and other small damages related to that. Never dealt with such damage before so want to get some of your professional's opinions on is it normal for this kind of repair to cost ~$4000-5000? (Property is in GA). If someone happen to be in Morrow, GA area and can perform the job, feel free to message me as well.

Then another question for you folks will be does it make sense to find vendor by myself or trust my local PM? I think my PM is helpful most of the times but when it comes to quote for repairs, it seems always on a high side. Am I just being too paranoid? (I usually request at least two quotes for the same job to mitigate the chance being ripped off...)

Thank you in advance!

Best,

Tony
