I will be doing an addition and remodel to my home and am wondering
whether it is worth it to act as my own general contractor and hire
sub-contractors, or hire a general contractor.

Depends on the housing market in your area. If it's doing well, you are going to

someone who is going to throw more repeat business their way.

Secondly, do you think you can identify the good subs from the bad ones?
