From the Publisher
This book is about saving money on carpet and vinyl flooring materials, installation, maintenance, repair and related replacement costs, which is the largest ongoing expense incurred in property management. The fact is, most property owners don’t know the best ways to save money on flooring because there has been virtually no practical, honest, inside information available on this subject, until now. Literally thousands of dollars can be saved by utilizing the years of experience and inside knowledge and techniques detailed in my book.

So who’s opinion should you trust? Trust my opinion!

Retail flooring sales people are concerned with the sale of materials and their bonuses and commissions. Just like in the automotive business where there are factory-to-dealer incentives, there are carpet factory promotions offered to flooring distributors and to retail carpet stores too. A carpet sales person may recommend a certain style of carpet to you only because of higher commissions or bonuses offered by the factory, or the lure of winning a sales contest by selling the most of a particular product. The target product may not be the right product for your needs, yet that may well be what is recommended to you. Carpet and vinyl flooring installers have little interest in teaching anyone the tricks of the business that could save them money. In fact, most installers are paid “by the yard” for their services. Do you think they would inform you of the fact that you could get your jobs done using less material? Not likely!

Everyone involved in the property management business; every Owner, every Property Manager and every Maintenance Person should read and utilize the information in this book. If you are a Rental Property Owner, my book you will help you to educate your staff and management teams. This alone will help you save a lot of time and money. If you are a Property Management Company, your business is based on fulfilling your agreement and obligation to the Property Owner. Your commitment is to be as cost-effective as possible when representing the Property Owners Interests. My book will help you lower flooring expenses and be more efficient. If you are a Maintenance Person, you have an obligation to maintain the property using any and all time and money-saving techniques you have knowledge of. My book is full of tips and tricks that will make you a more valuable team member. This book is the culmination of more than 60 years of combined carpet and vinyl sales and installation experience. This information is designed to save the property owner the maximum amount of money with their flooring costs. No where else in the world is this information contained in one publication. The closely guarded secrets of the flooring industry are exposed here and I guarantee that you can save a significant amount of money utilizing the experience and information revealed in my book.
