Like that thought resonates.
I still think in people's minds.
Right.
So like,
To me, that would be a reason for a client not to want to do a job cost plus, just for fear of that.
And maybe it gets back to a level of trust and understanding the market and all that, or getting three prices and going with a low one.
Maybe a little more emphasis on that.
Have you come across that at all, where clients have expressed that concern or as a builder expressed that concern of a client?
Okay.
Um, I, I would say with cost plus, I mean, you still have the inherent responsibility of managing a budget.
Like I, I, I do anyway, like I wouldn't want cost plus to come off as an open book because it's not right.
Like it is still your, sorry.
It should be an open book.
But I, and I use my current example, like I still feel the responsibility to track the budget.
And when I see Walnut get selected for ceilings instead of Poplar, like it's my responsibility to say, you know, look, Mr. and Mrs. Client, we give you a budget for X, but like your designers just picked Walnut.
Like that's going to cost you another 10 grand.
Like that I feel is my responsibility to show them that and manage the budget.
And like that cost gets that cost in a cost plus model, like the, the,
overhead.
Well, I don't know if it does.
