About The Owner/Builder Network

Owner Builder Network is best described as a team of experts helping clients... Be their own builder.
Owner Builder Network was founded outside of Houston Texas in 1997. A good builder today is someone that has connections with contractors and suppliers. With Owner Builder Network clients are in control. They will know exactly what is going into their home. They will know who is and isn't getting paid on their investment and why. The money they save by getting more than one bid and shopping wisely goes into their pocket - not the builder's. One of the highlights is the network they put the customer in when they close. This network consists of hundreds of contractors and suppliers that will bid on the project at a volume builders discount.
Owner Builder Network also has several national accounts that can help clients save even more.

About Crop & Drop Counter Tops

As a Crop & Drop Counter Tops franchisee, you will effectively penetrate multiple markets your competition can only dream of. The reason is simple... price. You will basically be offering the same products as a granite fabrication plant at a fraction of the cost. Not only will you cater to an established industry, but you'll also be selling to a market normally outside the reach of the solid surface fabricator - the ordinary home owner. Research has proven that home owners with average incomes would purchase granite if it were more affordable. With Crop & Drop Counter Tops, that obstacle is removed. Your price advantage permits you to sell at up to 50% below your competition and still maintain your profit margins!

This opportunity will only be available for a short time. We are only interested in establishing a few franchises per area, so contact us today to get started! Remember, previous experience is not required - our program was developed to train and certify selected individuals with or without experience.
