@Chris Hayes building a team is a good plan but is usually tricky because they all have to learn to work together in an ideal world you could find a couple of general contractors like me that knows different trades and have them work in everything that have to be done, unfortunately those are very rare to find and the few that I know are staying busy all year getting good money. there is a math rule that I always explain to my clients and that you might or might not heard of it, I always tell them that as a client when you hire a contractor you gotta consider 3 things, Time, Money & Quality. you can only pick 2 out of those 3, If you want to save money and want great quality that means the job is gonna take longer, if you want to save money and have it done fast the quality will be compromised, and if you want good quality and do it fast that means you gotta hire more people means it won't be cheap. once you have this in mind you want to find that perfect balance that works for you. a lot of people also underestimate how important is to find a good project manager/general contractor, this is even harder to find because just because you know different trades doesn't mean that you are good a managing others and organizing the jobs, and I have also meet "Project Managers" with business degrees with "experience in management" that have no clue what it takes to get a job done so they make the contractors work difficult and get in their ways and you as an investor end up wasting time and money.
