How to Find, Negotiate, Hire, Manage and Fire Contractors (without Losing Your Shirt)

Steve CookIn this Mogul Live, members-only training, we're thrilled to bring you an unscripted conversation with one of the most respected voices in flipping homes, Steve Cook.

From his 15+ years experience flipping houses in multiple markets across the U.S., Steve will be helping you master one of the most important, fundamental skills any property flipper should have: Finding, negotiating, hiring, managing and firing contractors.

Why should you listen to this training call?

The fact of the matter is, in the world of flipping real estate, your contractor can either be one of your greatest assets or biggest liabilities.

  • Find a good one, manage them well, and you'll enjoy a highly profitable, long-term, win-win partnership.
  • Hire a stinker, and well... you've got some painful, expensive lessons ahead of you.

So whether you're a newer investor, a seasoned rehabber, or even a second home landlord, this is a skill worth mastering. 

And that's exactly where Steve comes in.

Since 1998 Steve has flipped many hundreds of houses in multiple markets across the U.S. Over the years one of Steve's unique specialties has been the "flipping homes 1-2 punch", a powerful combo of quick cash via wholesaling and bigger cash via rehabbing houses. He recently relocated to Baraboo, WI where he continues flipping houses and building new consctruction.

Suffice it to say, he's got a LOT of real-world experience notched on his belt, in in hiring, managing and firing real estate contractors. He's learned a LOT he's willing to share openly on this training with us, that will save you tons of time, heartache and money in your own contractor dealings.

On This Call, We Discuss:

  • How to find and hire the right contractor for your rehab project
  • Hiring a general contractor vs. self-managing subs
  • Handymen vs. day laborers vs licensed, bonded and insured
  • What's the best way to pay your rehabbing contractors?
  • How can you protect yourself against contractor’s liens
  • Biggest contractor mistakes investors make, and how to avoid them
  • Steve's 14 Essential Steps to Any Rehab, In Order
  • How to avoid crumbling contractor communications
  • Having a solid Contractor's Agreement
  • 3 biggest "trouble" areas and how to solve them for good
  • How much should you pay contractors up front?
  • How to masterfully deal with cost overages, time overruns and unmet expectation

Truth be told, there's a thousand and one expensive mistakes you can make when dealing with contractors...and a few, solid, proven ways to do it right. And you have two choices:

  1. Learn yourself over time, from your own school of hard knocks, or...
  2. Shorten your learning curve, from the invaluable lessons, tips and tricks shared by others who've fought in the fix-and-flip trenches for many years before you.

Which sounds better to you?

Listen to this Mogul Live training, and you'll walk away with a ton of actionable, practical, realistic advice that will save you heaps of needless heartache, wasted money, and painfully, expensive mistakes in the world of dealing with contractors.
