Recently we have restructured my entire business model to the point where I am acting as a general contractor for my own projects.I have more horror stories than I have the time or patience to write about.Working with a general contractor seems to be the easy route and when you are connected with the right one it is definitely helpful and a relationship who want to nurture over time.I had a couple of instances where I hired a general contractor, he hired sub-contractors and never paid them although he was paid for their work/contract work and the sub-contractors liened my properties.Getting lien waivers from the general contractor is useless and worthless unless you have subsequent lien waivers from his or her sub-contractors as well.I recently had a general contractor come out and look at a job for a gut rehab of a two unit building in Chicago.
