You’re launching a capital campaign. The vision is clear. The excitement is building.

But who’s protecting the owner?

In this episode of Just Ask – Rethinking Development, Greg tackles a question many nonprofits overlook: Should you hire an Owner’s Representative for your building project?

• ​What is the opportunity cost of not hiring an Owner’s Rep?
• ​Are they worth the money?
