What was the breakdown of materials & labor?

Your takeout and delivery bill will be high. 2) Pre-buy all the materials and have them delivered on site.

Although if you read threads on them.. you will see that they require a 3k dollar up front fee to buy their educatonal material. while they say its not mandatory others have posted on BP if you dont pay it they hang up on you.. 

NARPM is just like the BBB in that anyone can pay a fee and join, use the logo on their marketing materials, etc. 

I'm just trying to save some money and use nice material that is going to the landfill.

The material for the downspout, carbon monoxide detector and bath silicone altogether is less than $100.

Once you have a tax pro they can help you on more complex matters such as Cost segregation, material participation and effective tax strategies that can be used to reduce W-2 income.

Materials and labor have gone up greatly in the past few years.4) 50,000 but average home costs were only 200,000 at the time ( 25% down commercial loan).

I will buy materials on the credit card for the sign up bonuses.

These kind of places are bets on the future that might take forever to materialize, if they ever do.
