Why shouldn't I do all the work myself?

To date, we have flipped 2 houses and purchased 3 rental units since June of last year.  The most recent rental purchase is not ready to rent.  My husband does most of the work but it is taking so long.  I've tried everything I can think of to convince him that it would be better in the long run for us to hire the work done, get them rented and move on but it's not working.  We purchased a duplex that took 6 months to get rent ready.  That's nuts!

So I'm looking for any resources that I can use to show him or prove to him that his way is not the way to go.  He enjoys most of the work and I do too but, we cannot continue to go at this snail pace and I'm looking for help.  Suggestions please!
