Cobbs Creek Contracting

Gerald became interested in real estate as a boy watching his grandfather manage rentals properties. A friend suggested he try flipping. “I did it one time and was like, ‘this is easy.'” Early on he worked with lenders who were middlemen and not always able to raise the capital he needed. He’s been working with Direct since 2010 “I love Direct Mortgage. They feel like an extended family. If they say they’re going to do it, they do it,” he says. He uses quality materials and fixtures, and whenever possible, restores the original details of the house to preserve it’s character. Gerald loves his work. He get’s to see his vision come to life and he’s making a positive impact in the neighborhood. “I’m changing the community one house at a time.”
