Dude, this is a symbiotic relationahip. 

Trying to start my new REI project, a flip in Milwaukee. Trying to negotiate with a contractor to budge on the plumbing costs, he wants 10k to pipe a 2,200 sqft. duplex, I need the number to come down to around 6k.

With all the things that need to be rehabbed, I've noticed the electrical and the plumbing are major areas of contention. Not only that we need to purchase furnaces and water heaters etc. 

How do you cut costs?

Is this your same issue? I would like to get a fair contractor, so we can make money for a long time.
