PS: I am a firm believer in delegating work. When you are involved in flipping houses, and renovating you should delegate work when ever economically possible. You will be in a much better position to delegate to other when you know what is involved in the work you will be delegating. These renovation guides will teach you quite a bit about each subject. Dive in, don’t be afraid to learn, it will only help.
