Estimating Tools to Efficiently Plan and Increase Profitability
The wholesale price of many of the goods used in residential construction rose in May, due in part to rising energy prices. Excluding energy, residential building material prices rose at the highest yearly rate since January 2023, up 4.4% from a year ago. Prices for services also rose 4.7% over the year.
Now is as important as ever for project managers to efficiently estimate looming costs and ensure their build is as successful as it can be. On Thursday, July 9, NAHB will host a live online course titled "Estimating - The First Line of Defense for Profits."
This course will teach attendees:
- The fundamentals of estimating to identify costs,
- How to use spreadsheets and packaged estimating systems,
