Apartment turnover help-Sacramento

Hi Sacramento folks,

I have an apartment turning over soon and was really looking forward to not painting it myself. I jotted down a company I saw on the way home from work that I thought was painting a duplex similar to mine. It turns out it was a SFH. The painting quote I have boils down to $1.75 per sq ft and 32 hours of work (about 1350 sq ft, 3BD 2 BA all rooms, including ceilings). There is baseboard and window/door trim that is white; some other color for walls and ceiling) My gut feel is that this is expensive.

Any input, including positive experiences with handyman or painters you've used would be much appreciated. I suppose a PM is in order to keep things on the up and up?

Thanks, Jake
