Tim founded the Austin Building Company in 1988 to build custom homes in El Paso County, Colorado, owned Handyman Matters (a restoration & maintenance franchise), and was a partner with SteelBuildingSupplier.com (online design for commercial & industrial buildings).

REAL ADVICE about Construction Management
In addition to building “rugged gentlemen” as an author and motivational speaker, Tim Austin really does know the construction business from the inside out. A veteran contractor and businessman, he’s learned a lot about how to negotiate construction needs and pricing with clients, and is willing to share some of that specialized expertise on the web.
For example – from his “design & build” checklist – Tim suggests that the role of the custom builder is also to guide the buyer and serve as a consultant throughout the process. Using a team concept, he addresses the reality of adversarial roles (builder vs. buyer); control & decision-making; payment & affiliations; working together & mutual trust; flexibility, expectations & written contracts; recommendations and education for the buyer; plus Risk Management, Financing, Design, Documents, and Dealing with Subcontractors and Suppliers.
