BackHome Developments Co.

A month ago a man told me publicly that I was never interested in his project.
He had 55 million dollars. He wanted a two storey multi family home.
I told him I wasn't a good fit and I replied to him in the comments.

That reply had a line in it that was wrong, and it was missing the only thing
he actually needed. Tonight I fix both.

We cover:
— Why 55 million divided by 28,000 a square foot is the sum nearly everybody does, and why it is wrong
— What 55 million actually finishes once site works and contingency come out first
— What a two storey multi family really needs, priced from a stated size, on air
— What a 50 million mortgage costs a month at 25, 20, 15 and 10 years
— Why I think the problem with contractors is a missing system, not honesty

For anyone in Guyana or overseas sitting on cash, wondering whether it is enough.

Tomorrow I'll Say the Hard One: Publicly Correcting My Mistake

I talk about a video I'm planning to make tomorrow night where I'll publicly correct a mistake I made a month ago. A man asked me to build for him, I said no, and I told him the issue wasn't the budget—but that wasn't completely true. I used a softer word because it was easier, but tomorrow I'll say the hard one and give him the exact number I should have given him then. I ask viewers if they would go back and correct themselves publicly if they were wrong.

How Much Does It Cost to Build a House in Guyana Today

Building a $55 Million Home in Guyana

We explain why the common calculation for building a home in Guyana with a $55 million budget is misleading, and we reveal how to properly account for site works and contingency to get the real square footage.

I said No to $55 Million Project: Correcting My Mistake Live
I talk about a comment I received under one of my videos, where a viewer with $55 million for a two-story multifamily home felt I wasn't interested. I explain that I told him I wasn't a good fit, but I made a mistake in my reply and missed a number he asked for. I announce that I'll correct both errors live on camera this Thursday at 9pm, and I ask viewers if a builder has ever told them no.

The Sad Reality of Abandoned Construction Projects in Guyana
Landlord Summit
We talk about how people deplete their savings to start a construction project, which initially looks promising and exciting. But then, after a year, everything stops—no workers, no movement, just an abandoned shell with green moss growing on the blocks.

Your budget has a number in it. Somebody gave you that number.
A cousin, a contractor, a bank, or a price you heard in 2019.

Tonight I am answering one question. Will your budget finish your house.
Not start it. Not get approved. Finish it.

And I am not answering it in the abstract. Put your budget and your target square
footage in the comments and I will run them live, on camera, out loud.

We cover:
— The real per square foot rates in Guyana right now, all three tiers
— Why 29 percent of your cost gets you to roof stage and 71 percent comes after
— Site works, land, legal and contingency, none of which are in a per square foot quote
— Where the number in your head came from, and why a valuation is not a budget
— Your budgets, run live, with the answer said out loud

For anyone building in Guyana from overseas, or from here, who wants the arithmetic
before the arithmetic finds them.
