OWNER BUILDER GUIDE
Take total control of your residential build and save in excess of $100,000 by acting as your own general contractor. Backed by 45 years of licensed contracting experience in California and Florida, GC Home Builders Consultant provides the professional project management and consulting guidance you need to build with confidence.
The owner-builder process
When you act as your own builder, you hold the authority and retain the standard builder markup. We partner with you through an advisory and project management consulting service to navigate each phase successfully while you oversee all direct contracts and payments.
Planning and financing
You obtain your own construction financing, with our guidance to help connect you with options, while establishing your permits and initial budget.
Trade and site management
You hire and pay all subcontractors and material suppliers directly under your sole authority, supported by our ongoing consulting oversight.
Inspections and completion
We help you prepare for building inspections and quality checks so your home passes code smoothly, keeping you in full financial control until move-in.
Clear responsibilities and total financial control
As an owner-builder, you are entirely responsible and legally liable for your project. All building permits, vendor contracts, and labor agreements remain strictly under your name and authority. We do not handle payments to third parties; you pay all laborers, suppliers, and subcontractors directly, along with our minimal consulting fee, ensuring complete transparency and zero hidden contractor markups.
45 years of licensed contractor expertise
Operating out of Rentz, Georgia, our consultant brings 45 years of hands-on custom home building experience with contractor licenses held in California and Florida. By bringing veteran field insight directly to your project, we help you prevent costly structural mistakes, manage workflow efficiently, and maintain high standards across all trades.
How you save upwards of $100,000
Traditional general contractors charge substantial percentage markups on every piece of lumber, every fixture, and every trade invoice. By acting as your own contractor under our project management consulting agreement, you eliminate those heavy premiums. You retain total authority over every dollar spent, turning builder profits into equity in your brand-new home.
