I was a brand new investor, and got sold a wholesale deal by an attractive woman "agent" with no meat on the bone.

You sound like a woman with a plan.

While having a GC is the best scenario, it is so difficult to find one that you can trust; not only trust that they are not going to try to take advantage of my limited knowledge since I am not a contractor - a huge concern for me as a woman - but also trust that they actually know how to do the job.
