Real Estate Project Manager

When flipping houses, the project manager’s core responsibilities are creating and maintaining a budget, coordinating contractors, creating a project schedule, upholding timeframes, and problem solving any issues that may arise during the process. From the initial assessment of a property to reselling it after rehabilitation the project manager will be the eyes on the ground, mediating between the office and the rehab crew, to make sure the project wraps up on time and stays on budget. Their knowledge of the local market, materials costs, and network of contractors will be the project manager’s greatest tools to tackle any rehab accurately. Conversely, poor management will lose money on every project and allow your contractors to walk all over you.
