David Greene talks about helping his contractor in a similar fashion in his BRRRR book.You could also utilize more subs to do specific things I.e drywall, roofers, windows , door subs and explain to your contractor if he wants this work also, he needs to be quicker and get his employees figured out.I’d connect with other investors and agents in your local market to see if they have referrals.
