Build Smarter, Earn More by 'Pricing for Profits'

Does pricing your homes involve more guesswork than knowledge of the actual costs and profits you should be making?

Attend Pricing for Profits, a new seminar offered by The NAHB University of Housing, to learn how to build homes with dead-on cost estimates and budgets.

Instructor Mitch Cohen, a consultant with The Lumin Group and a former industry executive who negotiated labor and materials prices for one of the largest builders in the country, will guide attendees through a proven, simple-to-use financial model he developed expressly for home builders.

Pricing for Profits will be held:

Pricing for Profits will give you a better understanding of how costing homes accurately is crucial to earning profits, as well as increase your confidence in your sales prices. The seminar will enable you to immediately use what you’ve learned to simplify and standardize the financial costs of every home you build — and make more money on each.
