Real Estate Investor's Guide to Construction | The Real Estate Entrepreneurs podcast w/ Rotty G

How can I stop losing money on construction costs and control my rehab budget?

In this episode of the Real Estate Entrepreneur Podcast, host Ricardo Rosales welcomes construction powerhouse Rotty Garzilazo. Rotty, a seasoned builder who’s navigated multiple recessions and worked with major hedge funds (like Blackstone-owned Invitation Homes), shares the real reason investors struggle with rehabs: they don't know the business of construction.

We dive into the critical steps investors must master before they even choose a contractor.

What you will learn in this episode:

The Blackstone Blueprint: How Roddy reverse-engineered the processes, KPIs, and budget scopes from large institutional investors to create a world-class management system for his own company.

The Biggest Budget Killer: Why 99% of investor rehab budgets are flawed, and how to account for the hidden risks (seasonal changes, time of year, market fluctuations) that blow up project timelines and costs.

The Contractor Mindset: Understand why a $30,000 contractor fee gets you a C-level team, and how to structure deals to attract A-level talent who operate on a margin, not just a markup.

The Five Must-Do’s: Roddy outlines the essential five principles of construction success—focusing on the ecosystem and people management—that every investor should know.

From Financial Ruin to $42K Profit | The Real Estate Entrepreneurs Podcast w/ Carlos Gonzalez

Fix-and-Flip is DEAD? Why New Construction CRUSHES Your Flipping Returns (and How to Fund It!)

Carlos Gonzalez transitioned from flipping over 100 houses a year to becoming a developer. He explains why new construction is typically more profitable and easier to manage than dealing with the "unknowns behind the walls" of an old rehab. Plus, he previews his upcoming REL Summit on how to leverage everything to scale your business.

The Land Due Diligence Trap: Don't buy a lot until you understand soil tests and buildability. Carlos shares the biggest mistake new investors make that leaves them stuck with unusable land.

The Price of Capital: Is a 10.5% interest rate too high? Carlos breaks down why hard money for a short-term flip is a minuscule factor that drastically increases your cash-on-cash return and allows you to scale faster.

The REL Summit Advantage: Learn how to fire the IRS (legally!), leverage your stock portfolio, and tap into other people's capital and resources at the Real Estate Leverage Summit in Tampa.
