REM 24: Van Sturgeon - The 6 Secrets to Working With A General Contractor

In an industry where everyone is constantly on a hunt for their next deal or for the money to even make their deal possible, sometimes we overlook the true source of value creation…

The execution of the business plan. 

For a deal to be as great in reality as it looks on paper, investors need to have a system for ensuring that value is added to the property, while staying within the confines of their budget and schedule. 

For this reason, I am thrilled to bring Van Sturgeon on the show today to discuss his processes for implementing a successful real estate business plan and what new investors should be aware of when working with general contractors!

Van Sturgeon has amassed over 1200 units over his 30-year journey in real estate and is passionate about sharing his experience with us so that we can bypass some of the costly mistakes that new investors tend to face. 

In today’s episode, we discuss…

• Which renovations results in the highest ROI on a value-add investment. 
• How to determine your unique abilities and how to create a power team around them.
• Why you should create a detailed “scope of work” for general contractors.
• Why new investors tend to over-renovate and how to save on some unnecessary costs.

If you are looking to make your first real estate investment or grow your real estate portfolio, the systems that Van has designed through his years of experience as a general contractor will undoubtedly help you add value to your investments!

Keep Making Milestones, 
Ben Malech
