Key Quotes from Episode
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1648752516000{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]
- Always carry yourself lower than anybody else. Don’t take credit. Put your head down and your eyes forward and respect other people around you.
- Everybody is bogged down with so much work. You have to get a lead of management on every part, every scope, and on everything that everybody is involved with.
- The biggest challenge faced by construction companies is growing, trying to figure out the sweet spot because everything is up. Labor prices are up, and wages are up.
- In a healthy market, for Scottsdale and Phoenix, there are 35,000 homes in the market. Right now, there are 4400 homes which is 13% of a healthy market. That is why the prices are going crazy.
- When you really care about your people, you can get in their faces and challenge them because they know you love them.
