any investors do the dirty work??
I have done a few flips, and currently rehabbing a buy and hold in greenville, sc. I do most all of the work myself, which is pretty slow going since i only have so much time to devote . I enjoy carpentry, and the feeling of turning an ugly house into a nice property. does anyone else out there do the work themselves, or do most people hire everything out. Once my youngest son is in school next year... that will free me up more time to make more progress. Just wanting to see how everyone else is getting it done. Also, it seems when i do hire certain things out.. i am usually not satisfied with the results. Thanks for the input.

In the beginning I swung the hammer. Havn't done so in years though. Truth be told i'm not all that handy I just kinda got in the way most of the time. We have 800+ properties & 60+ employees now so it wouldn't make any sense for me to be doing any of that stuff still. My partner still swings it every now & again. He can't help himself. He loves it. He's probably more useful in the office at this point but it's his passion to be in the field & get dirty so he makes time to go out to the projects as much as possible.
He's been going out to this property of ours last couple days with this major sewer issue that the plumbers are working on. Dude keeps sending me the photos. I'm like bruhhh your name is on hundreds of buildings, you shouldn't be in the same room as human poop anymore. He can't help himself. He loves it.
