Looking For Quality Building Materials at a Deep Discount...Do You Have a Lead?

[Paulette Midgette]

Hello BP,

I am always looking for ways to save the most money on building materials for my rehabs.  I live in Philly (this is true of most places) and as folks who live in the area may know the Restore is a great place to pick up building supplies at deeply discounted prices.  In the past I have also purchased bathroom fixtures from a liquidation site online.  Great quality product and I purchased in bulk and still have a good inventory to use in the future. 

As great as the resources I mentioned are, the drawback is that the stock is limited and most of the time it is a one and done purchase.  So, I am constantly looking for other places to source materials.

Do any of you have a source(s) for getting good quality materials at discounted prices that you would be willing to share?   As I stated, I leave in Philly, so I am looking for resources in the area, but others would also benefit from hearing from folks around the country.

I am putting a list together so please send me as many resources/ideas as you have and any tips or advice you would like to share.

Thank you all in advance!
