• "Construction Management For Home Owners" A book packed with important
  construction information that you will not find anywhere else. It is written especially for home owners yet
  applies to commercial construction as well. I observed hundreds of home owners being ripped off by
  dishonest contractors and have written it to provide home owners the tools professional construction managers use. It is easy to understand and tools to avoid the rip off contractors and select the best ones. It describes all types of construction from low bid to design build and four cost plus options. It includes an extensive glossary of terms needed to avoid costly mistakes. It is full of personal experiences and stories of owners who were ripped off by dishonest contractors with information owners need to avoid the same mistakes.

• "Bid Form for Home Owners" A form with instructions that your contractor fills out providing vital
  information. It is designed to keep your contractor honest, to motivate them to complete your project on time,
  within budget and with quality workmanship. It prevents dirty tricks of dishonest contractors such as costly
  change orders, up front pay and how to motivate them to finish the job. These are just a few of the money
  saving tools Bid Form provides to protect your home and investment from rip off contractors.
