Hello All,

My name is Tavi Perttula. I'm a licensed Landscape Architect and father of three. I've been working in the design, construction, and development field for 12 years and I'm looking to take on more of a developer's role.
I'm open to small scale flips as well as multi-unit ground up projects.
I'm hungry and ready to build!!

I look forward to meeting all of you soon,
Tavi
