Through a new construction company we formed called 9 Degrees North Collective, we’re buying and renovating properties with our own crews and these beautiful new homes will be for sale when they’re complete. I’m also working on a complete remodel in partnership with an investor friend from the US. As a result, home inspections have been booming, so they’ve been a big focus for me lately. Some people are buying virtually, sight unseen other than video tours and really good interviews with the real estate agents showing the property. This is the busiest season I’ve had yet and the last few months have been on fire with the amount of people coming in. Lately, with the real estate market here booming, I’m also performing a tremendous amount of home inspections for potential buyers in the area. Is this your main focus or are you working on other projects as well?įigure 8 Management is primarily a full-service construction management firm.
