Single-family versus multifamily renovation
Single-family rehabs are usually one vacant schedule and one finish story. Multifamily work adds unit logistics, repeated standards, common areas, and exteriors that have to stay consistent across doors. GRG does both, from a focused update through a substantial rehab, and scopes each property rather than forcing one template onto both.

Key facts
| SFR shape | Often one vacant schedule and one finish story |
|---|---|
| Multifamily shape | Unit standards, shared systems, common area, exterior |
| Reporting | Photos, milestones, written change orders — by unit when there are units |
| Pricing trap | Doubling a house template, or trusting a per-door average |
| Occupied units | Possible only with an access and habitability plan |
| Case studies | Not published. Carl has not provided a project gallery. |
Do not double the house and call it a building
A duplex is not two mortgages worth of kitchen and zero roofs. Interior repeats — kitchens, baths, flooring, paint — deserve a unit standard so door three does not drift from door one. Shared items — roof, structure, site, sometimes the electrical service — should be priced once, with a sentence about what they serve. A copied single-family template gets both of those wrong in opposite directions.
GRG handles single-family and multifamily investment work inside the same discipline set. The project-size span the company states, about $6,000 to $400,000, is a description of job size, not a per-door rate and not a claim about a specific community.
Schedules and people who still live there
A vacant house can be a single sequence from demo to punch. Multifamily often cannot. Leases, incoming move-ins, and common paths constrain hours. If your plan needs the building empty, say that before anyone prices a gentle occupied turn. Living inside a full demo is not a phasing strategy.
When occupied work is real, the scope needs access windows and a rule for resident belongings. It will be slower than the vacant comparable, and the schedule should say so while you can still underwrite the carry. Phasing some units to rent sooner is a pricing decision, not a favor the superintendent invents later.
Standards, exteriors, and the percent-complete trap
Write the unit standard down: flooring, paint, hardware, lighting, bath accessories, appliance tier, and the exceptions for odd layouts. A standard that lives in a group text will drift. Common areas, stairs, laundry, entries, and the exterior are their own lines. A strong interior under a failing elevation is not a finished investment.
Reporting should let you see which doors are done. A single percent-complete figure hides the unit that is holding the certificate of occupancy or the lease start. Photos, milestones, and written change orders are the baseline GRG describes. If a lender needs a draw rhythm, bring that format at the beginning.
What this site will not pretend
There is no project gallery, no unit-count trophy, and no “we did 40 doors at a named community” story, because those materials have not been provided. Stock photos on the site are illustrative. They are not GRG jobs. If you need references, ask in the conversation. Do not treat a webpage as a track record it does not claim.
If a building is outside the work we should take, the right answer is to say so. Stretching a single-family process over an asset it does not fit helps neither the investor nor the trades.
