I've done some basic research on GCs in Chicago, here are a few I've come across:Cobbelstone4ever RemodelingInland203k Remodel123 RemodelingArete Renovators, Inc.If anyone has any experience working with one of these companies I'd be very curious to hear how it went.My understanding is that when doing an FHA 203k loan, you go under contract, have a walk through of the property with a contractor (or multiple to get different quotes) during which you very specifically outline all work that needs to be done with what finishes etc, have a scope of work drawn up, that is provided to the lender, the lender then gives the green light, as construction is underway, there are draws after certain bigger projects finish, an FHA inspector comes through to make sure its done, THAT inspector is who then writes up a check for the contractor after approval is given, this goes on until the work is complete.

Quote from @Skip A Schenker: Hi @Jaycee Greene Primarily about the cash flow. 

Quote from @Yamil Naf: Quote from @Andrew Steffens: Echoing @Jonathan Greene above but if I was interested in doing this project why would I not just do it myself and keep all of the equity and cashflow?
