About this episode
Reece sits down with Christian and Deanne Lawson of Lawson Development to talk about the real cash flow squeeze behind fixed price custom builds, and why draw schedules can quietly force builders to finance jobs. They break down deposits, milestones, profit vs. payroll, and how to spot loan officer red flags before they wreck a project. You will also hear how charging for quotes and tracking simple “life notes” helped them level up fast. If this helped, share it with a builder friend and follow for more straight talk money conversations.https://www.lawsondevelopmentllc.comShow Notes:00:14 Show Intro01:45 Meet The Lawsons06:15 Bookkeeping Reality Check11:31 How Draws Work14:45 Floating Jobs Problem17:25 Deposits And Leverage23:44 Loan Officer Red Flags34:43 Charging For Quotes43:11 Life Notes System46:46 Write Off Talk48:42 Final TakeawaysFind Our Hosts: Reece BarnesMatt CalvanoPodcast Produced By:Motif Media
