Hello, I am a licensed commercial and residential general contractor who has been building and developing multifamily projects for nearly 30 years in Phoenix Arizona.

Plumbing and electrical changes have been made where needed as well as boiler and water heater updates to accommodate the extra tenants.

Hi All,I am a general contractor in Minnesota and am looking into getting my real estate license. 

Look for your REI groups, or try connecting with contractors.

What are your recommendations for a General Contractor in the Wilmington area for a rehab project?  

I want to go through the experience of purchasing the property, establishing a relationship with my PM there, and working with contractor(s) to make some renovations once the first tenant leaves.

Auto transfer gas&electric into the owner name might have really big bills, besides you don't have to turn gas on in summer.Same with water: if you don't bill tenants for using water - make sure that the owner agrees.

The place needs work on the roof, electric upgraded, HVAC, etc. 

If i am flipping a house and doing some basic renovations myself (Demo, cabinets, flooring) and using contractors for the bigger projects, do i myself need any type of licensing?

I did extremely conservative estimates as if I would have to replace all plumbing, HVAC, electrical, etc.
