Rehab/Construction Completion Timeframe when using GC's

[J Lee]

When using GC's, what is your average time length for project completion? Mainly for single family (2-3 bedrooms; 900-1200 sqft.) or triplexes (around 1500-2200 sqft.)

I read and hear many investors across the country in many markets quoting 2-4 months. Personally been dealing with a couple contractors that have always quoted and delivered 6-7 months, which in my opinion is too long.

I'm currently investing in the Philadelphia market, and would like to know what other's are dealing with.
