This week on The Build Show Podcast, Matt and Jeremy Martin of RisherMartin Fine Homes out of Austin, Texas, go deep into fixed-price vs. cost-plus contracts.

Jeremy and his partner, Chris Risher, have been in business together for a year, but they've been in the industry since 2010. They do a mix of architect-driven remodeling and new home building but started as a renovation company. They believe, as Matt does, that being a remodeler makes you a better builder because you can see what has gone wrong in the homes you're remodeling and take action to prevent those issues in new projects.

RisherMartin works mainly with fixed-price contracts, while Risinger Build works with cost-plus agreements. They drill into what makes a good fixed-price job and what's a better fit for a cost-plus builder, and what those processes look like.

Listen in while they discuss the risks and benefits of both business models for builders and their clients.
