Building a house requires a solid foundation and having a successful renovation or custom home build starts with a solid understanding of your agreement with your contractor. So in this video I'm breaking down how to price a project, what a business requires to remain in business and compare a cost plus contract to a fixed price contract. We'll be considering transparency, product warranties, change orders and scheduling.
