Make yourself the best customer.1.  

Hey Ian, I build custom homes however my clients want.

Frankly I considered cancelling within my first 3 months, but from my own frustration I realized it was to my own fault and not due to lack of customer support.

Enough to justify using him every time he is available (and he has bumped me ahead of other customers because of my repeated use).  

Reviews are great, but you have to have bookings first. 

Speaking of that, I need to review my goals!

First-time buyers may appreciate modern, budget-friendly finishes, while higher-end buyers might expect premium materials like quartz countertops or custom cabinetry.Study Local Listings: Look at recently sold homes in the area, particularly those at the top of your price range.

It helps you find investor-friendly experts like agents, CPAs, financial planners, and property managers who are reviewed by investors in the BiggerPockets community.Hope this helps!

I want to either build a spreadsheet or download/buy one that allows me to review what things such as Projected AAR, Projected Avg CoC, Exit IRR, etc, actually mean to the bottom-line. 

It just doesn't sound right to me and I think because they're so new, I'm not finding much in terms of reviews/recommendations of their company.
