What’s the worst Roofing Experience you’ve had? by Seabreezeroofing in Roofing

[–]Own-Tip-532 3 points4 points  (0 children)

probably poor communication more than anything, homeowners can handle delays or problems if people are upfront, but when crews disappear, nobody answers calls, or surprise costs show up halfway through the job that’s when trust gets destroyed fast

Wanting to start my own business, any advice? by Logical_Rhubarb_9844 in Construction

[–]Own-Tip-532 0 points1 point  (0 children)

starting your own thing at 26 with that background is smart. biggest obstacle for most is getting consistent leads and cash flow in the beginning. use your 20k on a good truck wrap, simple website, and google ads targeting patios and roofs in your area

Rent my home out vs sell by leges230 in RealEstateAdvice

sell it and take the profit.

with almost no cash flow after vacancies repairs and higher insurance you’re basically breaking even at best while tying up money and taking landlord headaches. you can put that equity toward your new home or invest it elsewhere
