// 117 Industries Consulting

Owner-builder consulting.

In Arizona you can pull your own permit and be the builder of record. Our lead build consultant runs the job with you — subs, schedule, inspections — for a flat consulting fee.

// THE PERMIT

You're the builder.

Owner-builder is legal, normal, and how half this valley got built. Your name on the permit, your equity in the walls.

// THE MANAGEMENT

We run the job.

Bids, subs, sequencing, inspections. You make the calls that matter and skip the ones that eat your year.

// THE FEE

Flat. Known. Once.

One consulting fee, quoted to your build before dirt moves. No percentage games, no change-order roulette.

02
// The Math Nobody Shows You

Build cost vs buying.

Anyone quoting you a build cost is guessing with your money — so we don't. We show you what finished homes actually appraise for around this valley, and let the gap speak.

// BUYING FROM A BUILDER
Their margin.
Every square foot of a builder's price carries his margin, his overhead, and his carry. The comps around this valley show exactly what that adds up to — we'll walk you through them.
// BUILDING AS THE OWNER
Your number.
Same house, same dirt, no builder margin. We'll walk you through real local appraisals and what our owner-builders had into theirs — face to face, not on a billboard.
// RECEIPTS, NOT RENDERINGS

Owner-built & managed
Our lead build consultant has taken two Gila Valley homes from bare dirt to move-in and is framing the third — every one owner-built, owner-managed. Build photos from the ground up, on request and soon on this page.
03
// The Whole Point

Step into equity.

Finish the build owing less than the house appraises for, and you move in already ahead — equity you built instead of bought. That delta is the whole game, and it's why we never sell you a price. We sell you the gap.

S1

Find the dirt

We find you deals — lots and land that pencil, some of which never hit a portal.

S2

Build as the owner

Your permit, our management, your consultant on every pour and every inspection.

S3

Appraise & refi

The house appraises at market. You refinance what you owe — not what a builder charged.

S4

Move in ahead

The difference between appraisal and your payoff is yours. Day one.

04
// Dirt to Deed — Loan Factory

Financing options.

Owner-builds don't fit the usual construction-loan box — so we don't use it. Our hard-money connections fund the build, and when the roof is on we convert you to a conventional loan through our mortgage side.

// PHASE 1 — THE BUILD

Hard money funds the dirt-to-done.

Short-term build capital through our lending connections — structured for owner-builders, drawn as the build progresses.

// PHASE 2 — THE TAKEOUT

Convert to conventional.

At completion we refinance you out of the hard money into a conventional mortgage — handled by Ronnie Russo at Loan Factory, NMLS #338213.

05
// We Find You Deals
