How much would you pay per visit to observe the minor renovation progress?

[Reid Beckers]

Hi all,

We purchased SFH In Columbus, Ohio. Since we are out of state, we need someone to observe the minor renovation progress.

What would be the average daily rate for hiring a renovation project manager to check on the progress and ensure that contractors are doing their job properly? We have someone and I'm thinking of starting at $50 per visit for this role. What are your thoughts on this amount? He has done several times in the past with someone else.　Before finalizing the deal, I'd like to get some opinions on whether this amount is too low or too high.
The renovation projects are minor ones, such as painting, window work, kitchen renovations, some repairs and corrections that do not require permits.

Thank you!

I’m in Columbus, Ohio and that is not a bad price. Make sure he takes pictures of it and also take some other pictures so you can have the current status. Will he have access to the SOW? It will make it easier for him to keep track of project with you.
