Contractors

I'm on my third property.  First one I renovated myself (but was extremely time consuming...although fun).  Second one I interviewed 7 contractors (excruciating).  Some flaked out and took weeks to respond to basic questions.  Others had no idea what "investor pricing" was all about.  I finally found a contractor but not sure he will work out on this next property.  So looking for recommendations.

The last property was a $40k reno.  But this one is a much smaller job.  Closer to $11-12k.  Most of the job is flooring, paint, appliances, and some basic kitchen and bath updates.  I really don't want to take this on myself (or at least all of it).  Am I better trying to give this to a "handyman" or act as the GC and hang out at Home Depot looking for subs?
