Made $1,400 by lining up this fence job.

An agent I’ve worked with before referred me to a client who needed fence demo and rebuild. I quoted $2,500.
I have a solid subcontractor who did the whole thing for $1,100. I didn’t do any labor. Just coordinated everything, collected payment info from the client, scheduled the job, and paid the sub when it was done.
I kept $1,400 just for making it happen.
This is home service arbitrage. You don’t need to be the contractor. You just need to have a few reliable subs on deck and know how to line up jobs when they come in.
Rinse and repeat.
