Contractor team

[Josh Sterling]

How are you guys building your teams for rehabs?

The way I see it there are 4 basic options:

1) Hire a guy (or two) to work directly for my llc (W-2 employee) pay hourly.

2) Hire a guy (or two) to work on a project by project basis (1099 them) pay by the job.

3) Hire a general contractor and have them handle everything (sub-out work, order materials, etc)

4) Act as the general contractor myself. Take care of subing out some of the heavier work (electrical, plumbing) but mostly have a couple guys that are handy to do the lighter work (cabinets, flooring, hang doors, etc)

I'm leaning towards option #4 but mostly concerned about materials. I can put together a big order and have most of the material on the jobsite, but there will still be alot of things that are missed, requiring the "handy-men" to make multiple store runs. I don't really like the idea of paying someone $15-20/hr to be spending a couple hours a day running back and forth to the hardware store, plus I would have to trust them with a company credit card, and not to buy a bunch of stuff that never made it to the job site.

Thanks for any advice
