The Triad REIA is excited to bring back John Marks to speak with us about working with contractors.  John IS a General Contractor, so he knows a thing or two about the subject.  His company is John Marks and Associates and they focus on building residential properties.

John has been in the industry for many years and has a lot of experience working with other General Contractors and Sub-contractors.  At this lunch and learn, we will talk about:

What are the different types of contractors?
When do I need to use a general contractor?
When do I need to use a sub-contractor?
What is a general contractor responsible for?
What is a subcontractor responsible for?
How do general contractors and sub-contractors work together?
How do contractors figure out a price for the project?

How should I find a general contractor or sub-contractor?
What does the hiring process look like for a general contractor or sub-contractor?
After the person/company is hired, how should I communicate with him/her?
What are the typical payment terms for a general contractor and a sub-contractor?
If something goes really wrong, how would I fire a contractor?

These are just a few of the topics that we will be talking about during our lunch meeting on Tuesday.  Come with your notepad and your own questions and John will help answer them to the best of his knowledge and experience.
