Report
I was introduced to Ed through my La Jolla Real Estate Board, of which he is a member. He was hired to manage the repair and reconstruction of a 2nd floor & 3rd floor deck repair in a 21 unit residential building in La Jolla. He created and coordinated a timeline with the contractors and architects and then communicated with the HOA and Board each step of the way. The deck repair was completed on time, because of Ed's relationship with the contractor and Foreman. Everyone, including the HOA and Board members were very impressed with Ed's work ethic.

Ed was extremely professional and a rare find for our unique situation. His expert knowledge and demeanor was exactly what we needed for our construction project issues. I would highly recommend Ed and Priority 1 for your construction project management and consulting needs. Anyone who is not well versed in construction should work with Ed to help guide them from the start.

Ed is the most organized guy I have ever met. I guess that's why he is so good at his job. I've been a business consultant for over 35 years in the construction industry and I've never met anybody better at managing projects than Ed. I highly recommend for anybody building a large custom home and wants it to be done right, on budget, on time and on schedule. I think he's one of the best in the industry. He is also amazing at managing relationships. Sometimes the construction process is ridden with conflict but not if Ed is involved. We all know conflict costs everybody time and money. In my opinion

Before Ed came on the job, we had suffered too many setbacks to count. The project was seriously lagging. When the homeowner (my client) finally agreed to hire Ed, everything changed. Our communication became clearer, quicker, and more comprehensive. He met with the homeowner and contractor, identified our goals and target timeline, and immediately got to work. Ed's gentle (but reliable) persistence got our project back on track. He fills the ESSENTIAL role of project manager and does so in the most amazing way. Ed speaks to everyone with respect and made sure that our contractor (and trades) felt
