A GC price includes coordination
Supervision, sequencing, subcontractor management, procurement, insurance, warranty coordination, and overhead can be part of markup.
Separate trades create more owner work
The investor may need to write scopes, schedule crews, solve trade conflicts, manage inspections, track payments, and absorb gaps between scopes.
Normalize before comparing delivery models
Compare the same property scope, permits, material responsibilities, cleanup, warranty, and schedule assumptions before concluding which structure is cheaper.
Use the decision as the starting baseline
When you choose a contractor, preserve the accepted scope, price, allowances, and payment milestones. CheckMyBids is the pre-hire side of the workflow; CheckMyRemodel is where the awarded project continues when changes and payments start.
