Since 2004, I’ve been on the hunt to find the best information, tools and skills to make my house flipping business run smoother. Having lost tens of thousands of dollars to bad contractors, I sat down with my banker and developed my own construction estimator tool based on a local lender in my town. The excel document you are about to invest in has been time tested and I use it on every house I buy , fix-up and sell. It covers every aspect and scope of renovating a single-family house so we don’t have to remember it all, because I don’t trust my memory. This estimator asks all the questions you need to cover with your contractor including: plumbing, framing, electrical, framing, painting, flooring, sheetrock, roofing siding, etc.etc… so you won’t have to be held hostage by a contractor again. Remember one of Napoleon Hill’s top 10 rules of success is “making sure we cover ALL the details”… It’s all covered here.. This is an excel spreadsheet to track your repairs!
