How many contractors is too many?

[Eric C Henry]

Hi all! I am in the process of rehabbing my first house for a fix and flip investment. The house needs a good deal of work. Most of the contractors I speak with want to take on the job of fixing the whole house and subcontract any projects that aren't in their area of expertise. My question is: should I find one GC that I am comfortable with and let them manage the rehab; or, should I manage many contractors and only award projects to the ones that specialize in the task(s) at hand. What seems to work best for you? Thank you!
