Whether that is permitted in all states, I can't say. 

Let me know if you need permits pulled or if it is a small job. 

Most hired hands are going to burn out fast after they have to chew out a misbehaving sub the third or fourth time.Let me give you an idea from my perspective -We are a design build firm and handle projects including plans, design, permit, material logistics, payroll, book-keeping, ground/assembly management, scheduling, rescheduling, vendor management, quality control/assurance, and every other aspect of construction.We typically have about 5 'ground active' jobs, and 5-7 more in the hopper in some phase of planning, design, or permitting.To accomplish this, we have a meager staff of 2 designers (one of whom is a 20 year architectural veteran), a full time office manager, a full time site manager, a helper who splits time between being a carpenter's assistant and a gopher for materials, and someone who does scheduling and material takeoffs.

They said I could pull the permits and they do the work.

Things like $50 landlord fee, $300 power deposit, electrical inspections that almost always result in more work, pulled permits, garbage fee, etc...  

Our real estate agent suggested we apply for a student housing permit a d off the property as a rental to Students.

I'd be curious if the garage addition was permitted.  

Most cities/counties won't give a permit to move that vintage.

Look at the permit.  

He doesn't put any money into the deal, he oversees the design, permitting, construction etc. and adds 18% onto the construction costs.
