Who I Work With

Two Types of Clients.
One Process That Works.

Whether you're starting from scratch or already sitting on land — the path forward is clear when you have the right guide.

01
Land Buyers

You Want to Build But Don't Have Land Yet

Finding the right dirt is where most people lose money before they ever break ground. Wrong zoning, hidden site costs, bad access — I've seen every way it goes wrong. I'll find the lot, vet it completely, and make sure your build pencils before you commit a dollar.

  • Land sourcing within 1 hour of Charlotte
  • Utility, zoning & setback verification
  • Site cost estimation upfront
  • Plan selection matching your lot & budget
  • GC coordination from day one
02
Land Owners

You Own Land. Now What?

You've got the dirt — now you need a plan, financing, and someone who knows how to execute without blowing your budget. I work with lenders who specialize in construction loans and GCs who know how to build efficiently. You just need to show up at closing.

  • Construction loan structuring & lender referrals
  • Soil testing & feasibility review
  • Budget development from real numbers
  • Plan selection & design guidance
  • Full build oversight through keys
Transparent Pricing

No Surprises.
Real Numbers Upfront.

Here's what a build actually costs per square foot. I put this on the website because most people waste months guessing — now you don't have to.

How It Works

Simple Process.
No Guesswork.

330 builds taught me exactly where people get confused and where they lose money. This process eliminates both.

01
Discovery Call
Free. 20–30 minutes. We talk through what you want, where you want to be, and what your real budget looks like. No pressure, no pitch.
02
Land + Feasibility
I find or vet the land, run the numbers, confirm utilities and zoning, and give you a real picture of what building here costs — before you commit.
03
Plan + Budget
We select a plan that fits your lot, your life, and your budget. I lock in the pricing, engage the right GC, and structure your financing if needed.
04
Dirt to Keys
I oversee the build from ground break to your final walkthrough. You stay informed. Budget stays intact. You pull in the driveway and say "this is ours."

About Jimmy

The Guy Who Sees What Others Miss.

"I can look at a piece of dirt most people would scroll past — and see exactly what it could become."

330 homes built since 2021. That's not a typo. While most people in this industry are building their first dozen, I've been doing this every single week across Gaston, Cleveland, Mecklenburg, and the surrounding counties. I've seen every mistake, every cost overrun, every deal that almost didn't close.

Thor Consulting exists because the process of building a home doesn't have to be overwhelming. You need someone who's done it hundreds of times, knows where the landmines are, and can quarterback the whole thing from dirt to your first night in the house.

I'm also a licensed real estate agent, which means I can help you find the land, structure the deal, and represent you on both ends. One person. One process. No gaps.
