Also I had other parallel tasks inside the house going at the same time.I did the initial measurements and design on the computer, started looking for materials and labor help.

@Joe Stafford, @Brian L., @Bryan L.I have heard of investors using letters in a series.

A property owner can usually get credit at the box stores and suppliers, many owners` can't do the work or pay labor and a RE commission.

Thanks @Joe Fairless!

I personally buy all materials and pay labor weekly, but never ahead of what it would cost me to hire someone else to come in and complete the work plus about 10%.

You may not be able to get the same prices we do, but these are some of our baseline contractor prices to do the following complete renovations to these respective areas:Complete Kitchen Remodel: $3,500 (refinish existing cabinets, install ceramic tile flooring, new Formica countertops, new stainless sink with new brushed nickel faucet, new cabinet fixtures, new basic light fixtures, other basic repairs, and all labor included - does not include appliances).

Depending on the scope of work to be done, I'm targeting projects between 30-90 days (SFH or multi) from purchase to listing, and need to put together a solid team on the ground that can get through multiple projects a year.I am hoping for some introductions to reliable and trustworthy contractors that have a great team of skilled labor partners to make everything run smoothly.
