Build Smart Masterclass

Learn to source, build, and exit spec homes like the pros

This isn't theory. Chris and Brooke from Divergent Custom Homes have collectively overseen 500+ home builds and completed nearly 100 projects in three years. 90% of their business comes from referrals and repeat clients. They're bringing that real-world knowledge to the RE Dealmakers community—and you're going to walk out with the exact playbook they use.

What you'll actually be able to do:

During this full day class, you'll go from wherever you are now to operating as a confident spec building investor. 

You'll learn to source land, run full due diligence, budget correctly, navigate permitting without losing six months, manage construction without bleeding money on change orders, and choose the exit that actually maximizes your return.

This isn't generic real estate advice. Every module is built on real project files—actual due diligence packages, anonymized permit submissions, real change orders, real pro formas. You'll see what actually works and where deals go sideways.

Here's what's covered:

Choose whether spec building fits your capital and risk. Source and evaluate land independently—and recognize a money pit before it costs you six figures. Run full due diligence. Build a complete budget and secure financing that doesn't leave you dry mid-build. Navigate design and permitting. Manage the build without losing control of the schedule. Evaluate all seven exit paths and pick the one that actually works for your position. Then build the system to do it again.

Real people, real projects, real results:

You'll learn directly from Divergent's team—the same people running the projects on the ground. Live exercises with actual Colorado parcels. Live budget builds using real deal numbers. A capstone where you bring a deal to the hot seat and get your assumptions stress-tested. Plus you're walking out with Divergent's complete toolkit—all the templates, checklists, land evaluation scorecards, permitting guides, and pro forma models they actually use on projects.

The curriculum works for both first-time builders and experienced flippers moving into construction. It works for people who want to hire a GC and people who want to run it themselves. Foundation track. Advanced track. Same room—no splitting up.
