There are critical items such as -Plumbing, HVAC, electrical items, roof repairs, appliance repairs- that you want extremely competent professionals to handle to ensure that you the PM and owner avoid liability and to ensure you aren't shelling money out again for the same issue because you were being cheap the first time.  

As far as the house, I would get someone to complete the outside and I would finish the inside and do all of the electrical, plumbing, trim, etc. and contract out the drywall myself.

We spent a total of just under 50k renovating the property, all new windows, interior including paint, flooring, updated plumbing, electrical, all completely renovated the interior including removal of popcorn ceilings, and all costmetic updates, cabinets, countertops, light fixtures.

I think this gives the slightest of advantages to people who are smaller investors, and also people who are willing to perhaps sacrifice some time and energy short term for long term gains.

I will do the finishing myself but I’m asking for foundation, plumbing, electrical, framing and drywall.

Bought in June 2022 and closed in October 2023.And keep in mind, we’re full time Realtors, not full time flippers lol.Also, we were under the impression if we switched out some light fixtures and some lighting, then we didn’t need an electrical permit.

Super frustrating to have wasted so much time and energy with them.  

I can do all the basic things like lawn maintenance, snow removal, painting etc, and some electrical and plumbing.
