Where does everyone buy their buidling materials for your flips?
I was jsu wondering where does everyone buy their materials for their flips? I am based out of Chicago/Northwest Indiana area and I have found some places to get some really great deals and other places I have paid straight up retail which I know with the right network we all can help each other find really awesome prices. I have a place in Chicago I can go to and get 50% off bathroom vanities,windows,doors, faucets,tile,glass tile,ceiling fans,toilets, bath tubs, etc but it all depends on what he has in stock and when. He sells out quickly too once he recieves his shipments so it's all a timing thing. On the flip I am doing now I need bigger size vanities that he simply don't carry. Also looking for gutters ,soffits,water heater but he don't carry this kind of stuff. If anyone in the area is intrested in my building material guys place let me know and I can give you his address. Its a big old commercial warehouse whic is not very clean or organized but you can find some good materials for your flips or rentals. But would like to hear from other flippers where do you go and buy your stuff? Any good online places? etc...
