You are allowed to do your own electric work in NH.
You just can't hire someone that is not licensed.

You have to live in the house for two years afterward before it can be sold.

When Sky states a local builder... he means the GC, not the crew.

It takes a GC new to an area a while to develop an understanding of how the local yard they are using works, what the relevant product lead times are, etc.
All of that is learned on someone's dime.

With a seasoned GC, you can have a mix of laborers and subcontractors that can a job done onto with some level of quality. Some of the laborers will have more experience than others, but the GC can station their workload in a way that they develop new skill sets while not slowing the job or undermining quality.

It would be odd for a GC not to complete a job, if the customer is following the standard payment schedule. The GC would go from completing 75% of the work to 90%... paying the crew and subcontractors along the way, and never get that final payment to cover those costs.
