Manage your renovation like a PRO

9 years ago I was 24 years old, new to California from Arizona and I sold my previous businesses in the skin care and rental car industry.

I knew I wanted to be in real estate so I did what most people do and I got my real estate license... But I never even showed a house 🤣

I immediately realized I didn't want to tour potential home buyers around and wait for them to pick their dream home... I wanted to CREATE the dream home.

So I started going to real estate investing seminars, construction classes and learning everything I could about the business of remodeling, flipping homes and INVESTING in real estate.

I was calling lists of homeowners to see if they would want to sell, and they didn't... but they did need some work done around the house.

I worked with some of the best and worst contractors in my area... and really dialed in my vetting, negotiating, contract writing and documenting skills.

Construction management pushed me and grew me like no other profession.

Not to mention the money grew like nothing I've ever experienced up until that point.

Coming from my skin care stores or salons, the average transaction was $250 and for the rental cars, $1200 for 30 days.

The average ticket in construction is 10k - 50k depending on what type. After some experience you might move to ADU's where the average ticket is 300k 😱

Obviously thats not profit, but the better you get the more profit you'll retain - just like any business.

So I wrote this guide as a starting line for those who want to break into construction as a career or for the homeowners taking on their first few home renovations and they want to know how to save money and time by planning ahead properly.
