Hi Guy/Girls
Hope everyone is well. I wanted to know if anyone can recommend a good source In South Florida where to find building supplies, like sheetrock, tile, laminate, etc ? Mainly for rehabs. Looking for better prices than Home Depot, Lowes, etc
Try building relationship with contractors and construction companies that have show rooms. Often times they have relationships with distributors and are offered discounted/ discontinued lines of products and such. Also if they have access inventory they need to liquidate it for new stock. This may not be the norm but there are a few contractors in my area that have show rooms and they have been giving me carpet, cabinets, flooring, etc for literally 60% off.
Make sure you are treating them right though and sending them tons of business and even using them on your projects from time to time.
@Andrew Michael Thank you for your feedback. Thats a smart way of doing it. Ill definitely ask around and see if any contractor could help out as you mentioned. Greatly appreciated!!!
