Renovations in Columbus OH

How long do your renovations typically take when hiring a gc? Wrapping up renovations on one side of my first duplex and I closed in July. Flooring, Drywall, refinish basement, roof, gutters, tuck point around house, and one full bathroom gut all had to be completed. Any tips and recommendations are appreciated. Thanks.

    As others have mentioned 2 -3 months would be the typical time frame for what you mentioned. Ideally completing light renovations like this shouldn't take long and you should  have a low holding cost on the hard money loan (if you used debt) and make a higher profit on the sale or have more flexibility on the payoff when you refinance
