Owner Builder Question from Newbie

[Hotzcatz]

Back to the electrical BIL helping with the Hawaii house question - if your BIL could do some of the electrical work such as drilling the studs for the wire runs, setting the boxes, etc. that would save the electrician some time and effort and might get you a better deal. You would have to ask the specific electrician if they would be willing to let your BIL be an assistant. Or you could see if the electrician would do a "time and materials" contract and have your BIL help save on the "time" part of the contract.
