Also had an extremely overgrown backyard and some minor plumbing problems which cost $1892.57 to fix.

I was staying in that house for 3+ years before them, and had no plumbing issues. sfr, ranch home 4bed/2bath, 60s built.

My first hire would be an experienced contractor to handle the basics (demo, framing, sheet-rock, flooring, etc.) and sub out the specialties (roofing, electrical, plumbing, foundation, HVAC, etc.).What do you think?

Make sure there are not major rehab items on the first one-no overhaul of electrical, plumbing, or strctural.
