The “Cheaper” AC Isn’t Actually Cheaper… Read the Contract! 🧾 #HVAC #MoneyTips #Business

I once gave somebody a quote, let's say $500,000 to renovate his home. He said, "Josh, I'm not going to use you because I'm going to someone else that gave me $100,000 less." I said, "Maybe you can't afford me. Maybe I am expensive, but let me review it with you just as a courtesy. And if it works, it works. If not, we're not meant to work together." And I took a look and it says air condition by me. It says supply [music] and install tile. By them, it says install supplied tiles, which means that I'm [music] saying that I'll give you the air condition and I'll put it in. The other guy says, "I will put in whatever you paid for and dropped off at the house." [music] That one word of either supply and install or install supplied is 30 grand, 20 grand. So, it turns out that the other person was about 65,000 more than me. Problem is, you get a quote from a contractor. What do you do? Truth. You open up the attachment and you scroll down to the bottom to see the total.
