Quotables

 

“One thing I do know is that we’re not gonna be able to build houses fast enough, so we have to learn how to work with the existing inventory in the market and one of the best ways to do this is by using renovation lending.”

 

“People always wonder why all contractors suck, but it’s not that all contractors suck. It’s that all people go to the cheapest guy.” 

 

“I think the thing I underestimated the most was getting one deal and how that one deal changes everything so fast. You, all of a sudden, are part of the club.”

 

“If you can get a good deal, a good deal absolves all sins.”
