					<description><![CDATA[Hi Ronique.  One other option your readers might want to look into...taking on the role of the general contractor/owner-builder and hire the subcontractors to do the work.  By acting as the general contractor for say a...kitchen remodel, they can choose to do the work they know and subcontract out the rest.  For my projects, I will sometimes do the work when I can&#039;t find a fair price.  By being the general contractor, you keep control, save money, and get exactly what you want.

Something to think about.  It&#039;s not for everyone, but should be considered.]]></description>
