Dropping the membership rate to $29/month for the first 50 people to join the group! ALSO, you can earn some money for yourself by referring people to Skool and earn 40% of monthly recurring revenue for life.

Sharing some more notes for the rest of the year! - Overall Direction is slow, positive drift rather than a surge - Total project spending is up modestly. - Downside risks: sticky rates, refinancing stress in office/retail, geopolitical shocks. - Upside: accelerated public/infrastructure implementation, selective rate relief, stronger manufacturing policy execution. - Manufacturing / Industrial is likely to be an overperforming sector with a bias toward high-tech and strategic sectors. - Healthcare and life sciences is likely to be an overperforming sector in strong demographic and research hubs. - Public/institutional work is likely to be an overperforming sector where federal/state funds are already appropriated. - Data centers and mission-critical is likely to be an overperforming sector, but is often reported within broader commercial/industrial categories. - Traditional new office buildings are likely to underperform or remain challenged, however remodels and repositioning remain strong - Some markets are over-supplied or structurally shifting submarkets and are likely to underperform or remain challenged (e.g., some urban cores with high vacancy and weak fundamentals).

Sharing some notes from industry reports that i have been receiving. Some interesting notes here! General patterns : - Moderate, uneven growth in overall project values. - Top-line growth helped by lingering cost inflation. - Stronger in high-growth Sun Belt and select Mountain West metros. - Slower or flat in some coastal gateway and Midwest markets, especially where office exposure is high. - Commercial & institutional project starts/put-in-place values are slightly up vs. 2025 in value, flat-to-low growth in square footage. - Backlog is still healthy for most large GCs and CMs (often 8–12+ months on average), but with more scrutiny on deal quality and funding certainty. - Bid environment is increasingly competitive on straightforward private work. - Bid environment for public work still draws heavy interest.
