Contractor recommendations - South Jersey

Ray Realdine

Posted

Hello everyone,

My brother and I are in the middle of flipping a property in South Jersey.  It was a significantly distressed property, as almost all of the interior framing was damaged from termites, in addition to a number of foundation issues in the rear of the house.  Our issue is that we both work full-time jobs and do not have alot of time to work on the property, aside from nights and weekends.  We need to hire someone to help us finish this project.  Can anyone here recommend a reputable contractor in South Jersey area?

 Where in South Jersey? If you aren't going to be your own GC this sounds like a rather expensive job when compared to doing all the work yourself. Does your budget support that incremental cost? I ask because a lot of flippers doing the work themselves don't appropriate price in the value of their time and just work on smaller margin.
