What is construction arbitrage?
A construction arbitrage business makes its money on the margin between what a client pays and what it costs to deliver the work through subcontractors. Instead of swinging the hammer, the owner wins the work, prices it, and manages a network of trusted subbies who do the build. Because the model is asset-light, systemised and run from a desk rather than a van, these businesses scale well and don't depend on the owner being on the tools - exactly the profile that buyers pay a premium for. If you've built a construction arbitrage business, ContractorExit is where you sell it.
