*This is Part 1 of a Special 3 Part Series..........."Have you ever thought, ‘If I just could get an idea of what my competitors are charging….., then I’ll know the real price i should be charging for this remodel’? Here’s the truth: Every estimate is made up. That’s right—they’re all fabricated, based on a mix of math, judgment, and what each remodeler thinks the project is worth and half of what each other remodeler thinks is often wrong and not based on actual factual data either. Disheartening right…….well not necessarily —--what if its not a bad thing. Stay with me…….It’s actually an opportunity for you to stand out—if you know how to explain it."
