Do contractors hate all flippers?
I ran across a YouTube video that surprised me. I’m one of those starry eyed beginners hoping to make a name for myself in real estate fix and flips.
It was the comments that made me turn my head! Contractor after contractor throwing flippers under the bus, lumping them together and generalizing.
Do I have to be a J.A. cheap skate underpaying my team and selling second rate craftsmanship to make a profit? Or are there contractors out there with fair prices that love working with flippers??

@Emily Haase
Contractors hate novice flippers. Why? Because they do not understand construction, they won’t pay change orders, cannot make decisions and if they act as the GC do not know how to schedule work.
