Case Study – Real Estate Capital Firm

Cutting Renovation Costs Through Direct Material Sourcing

Real Estate Operations / Renovation Sourcing

A South Carolina-based real estate capital firm involved in the acquisition, renovation, and management of both residential and commercial properties found itself overspending significantly on renovation materials. Despite holding a business account with major hardware retailers, the firm continued to pay marked-up prices on essential materials—particularly flooring. To improve ROI and streamline their renovation pipeline, they sought a more strategic sourcing approach.

“Efficiency That Scales: Reinventing Renovation Sourcing with Direct Manufacturer Access"

PAIN POINTS THEY WERE EXPERIENCING:

Operational Inefficiencies: Heavy reliance on retail hardware suppliers without a dedicated sourcing strategy.
Excess Material Costs: Store markups on materials, especially flooring, inflated renovation budgets across multiple projects.
Reduced Project Profitability: Overspending diminished returns on each renovated unit, limiting scalability.
