house hacking rehabilitation

[Twannisha Jackson]

gonna update the property slowly but surely but i’m wondering something. would it be easier to find a handyman to put in my sink or a licensed plumber? i don’t mind buying my own materials if it would save me some cash. having a hard time deciding who to do my home improvements. good help is hard to come by these day, especially being new. the price increases doesn’t help as well. as much as i want to diy, i don’t want to mess anything up & still have to call for help! what’s a good place to find handyman? where did you find urs?

Twannisha,

If you are just changing out a sink then I would use a qualified handyman. I always hire the specific contractors I need for each task. In my case it saves me a lot of money. It all depends what your comfortable with. I've been rehabbing properties for over twenty years so I don't need a general contractor to oversee the project for me.
