If I didnt monitor and didnt correct mistakes the job would've cost me the same but with lower quality work and craftsmanship

Saturation is definitely upon us but quality product continues to get booked just like other markets.

But at the end of the day, the quality of services provided and how well you'll get along with a PMC is what it comes down to IMHO. 

Not a full fledged house hack, but enough to take the sting out of the rate we got.Not all of Citrus Heights is the same, but the area near Fair Oaks/Orangevale/Carmichael has a good balance of price and quality.

Quote from @Michael Smythe: @Jerry NoguerasRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Have to agree with most here in that a SF-> duplex conversion needs some really specific qualities to be worth the squeeze.

By systematizing these areas, you can shift from a reactive approach—where deals dictate your strategy—to a proactive model that generates high-quality acquisitions with reduced risk.2.

I know the issues with the building, the quality of the condo, and the state of the association.

Waste of time, huge room for error and zero reason for a customer to do this.....any Contractor worth his salt will have better pricing/quality/selection on the big stuff and will have guys on his crew that can do those dreaded 'parts runs' for the little stuff.
