What Are The Biggest Mistakes People Make When Planning A Construction Project?
Ever wondered why so many construction projects go over budget and past deadlines? Licensed general contractor Alex Kosley pulls back the curtain on the costliest mistakes homeowners and business owners make when planning their builds.
The reality of construction planning is far more complex than most people realize. Alex explains why Google searches for "how much does an ADU cost" lead to disaster, and how budget misconceptions create a domino effect of problems. When clients discover their expectations don't match reality, they either cut corners by hiring the cheapest contractor or proceed without proper financial planning—both paths leading to expensive disappointments.
Whether you're dreaming of a new ADU, planning an office upgrade, or tackling a major renovation in the Colorado Springs area, this episode delivers concrete advice that could save you thousands of dollars and months of headaches. As Alex emphasizes, "Construction isn't just something that you wing. A well-planned project saves time, money, and stress."
