Hiring a GC Vs Subbing out work yourself?!

Posted

I’ve done new construction projects and multiple jobs down the studs with additions.

Now I’m getting towards my 6th project and wondering if it makes sense to be the GC. 

Im not looking to do any work but simply sub out the work myself to cut out the middle man and save 25-30%? 

I know the framers, electricians etc and thinking it might make sense. 

I’ve also got everything down by now (in terms of what order everything happens etc). 

Would also be nice to not be beholden to a GC in terms of when guys show up etc.

What do you all think?
