A builder breaks down why a $1.3 million budget for an RV resort project is short by roughly $800,000. He compares it to Disney's $20 million construction cost, arguing that realistic returns over a decade require far more capital than the $2 million being proposed.
Are you in the deal room? TBI, they're going to need to factor about a $1.3 million budget, period. So the gap that you can give them is for them to understand they're about $800,000 off on their mark. And again, you— and here's the best part. Ready? Ready for this? This is coming from the guy that pisses off everybody. Pay attention over there on TikTok, Facebook. Okay. This has no feelings, no emotions, non-biased or anything. It's just bringing you facts. Let the numbers tell you what to do. Okay, it's not this redneck smartass telling you, oh, I've been there, done that, because you know how many people believe that I'm a nurse and I'm a contractor and I know both worlds so good that I could predict what this thing was going to say? You know, just give me a little shawmy hat with a clear ball and I'll just— I got better luck at selling that than I do telling people this is the truth, you know? So when Trevor and I were talking to those people about their dream RV resort, they want to build Disney for 2 $2 million. I was like, that's not how you do it. Disney, you got to spend— you got— you're going to spend $20 million to build Disney and pray you get your $2 million back every year now. So, and then you get— you get to have it for 10 years to earn your money, right? Because that's how it actually works.
