Building your Crew for a flip

Hi guys and gals,

I was wondering how did you start building your crew for a flip?

Do you hire just 1 General Contractor?

or

Do you hire sub contractors for each job?
( i.e. one for flooring, one for drywall)

Where did you start your search for a crew?
1) referrals?
2) go to home deport/ lowes?
3) ads on craigs, angies, etc?
Thanks for the advice

Was that a joke?

If not, are you suggesting that you'll buy them their tools, pay for their workmans comp insurance, pay for their liability insurance, deal with the details of hiring and firing, etc...

Sounds like much more overhead than what you'll gain...
