Sac CA - How to Hire & Manage Contractors Locally & Out-of-State

[Megan Krekorian]

Learn the Red Flags of Bad Contractors!

Have you ever has a bad contractor experience? Do you know your rights when hiring one? Do you know what to ask? Have you managed contractors when you can’t visit the property?

We’ve heard from far too many flippers who have lost tens of thousands of dollars to bad “contractors (some upwards of $100k). From no permits, to missed deadlines, change orders, safety accidents, or even doing a disappearing act, you need to know what to look for and how to manage the project.

Having the right people can make or break a deal.

Whether you are flipper, buy-n-holder, lender, or just someone looking to remodel their home, you want to get the low down on the good, the bad, and the ugly when working with contractors. This month we’ll hear from from our favorite contractor Merton.

From licenses, permits, contracts, payments, and managing projects, Merton will help walk you through the blue print of selecting, hiring and working with contractors both in your back yard and out of state.

Whether you are a new investor or an experienced one, Merton will provide guidelines to protect yourself and avoid becoming one of those horror stories. Also get plenty of tips that make doing multiple flips easy and efficient.

Merton is a completely turnkey contractor who has done hundreds of projects throughout the Greater Sacramento area, from Tahoe down to the Bay Area. He has experience on small homes that sell to first-time home buyers to homes in the million dollar range. He works with investors and home owners alike. We are lucky to have him as part of our club!

Besides being able to wield a hammer and hit project timelines, Merton also has an eye for the flow of the house. He always has a door open on a current project for new investors to walk through and see a project in process) PLEASE NOTE – the will be NO video of this meeting!
