What is an Owner's Representative?

If you’ve never had to manage a construction project before, it might be time to hire an expert. An owner’s representative from Journey Construction is your advocate on the job site. They are your liaison for the entire project—you communicate with them, and they relay your instructions to the team. The Journey Team will streamline your project and make sure it stays within schedule and budget. Whether or not you’ve already hired your construction team, adding an owner’s advocate from Journey Construction Group ensures that your best interests are carried out.

Frequently Asked Questions About Owner’s Representatives

An owner’s representative acts on behalf of the owner of the business that requested the building project. They are the voice of the owner on the job site and relay relevant information about the project back and forth from the owner to the site. They also manage the master budget, schedule and project quality on the owner’s behalf. Journey is an extension of your team at every stage of building. 

Every project is unique in its scope. We start conversations with business owners early on to determine costs. Our owner’s representative team is typically paid as a percentage of construction on the overall project costs or as a monthly retainer based upon a specific project scope.
If you have never managed a construction project for your company, you will want to hire an owner’s representative. All building projects require a team that understands construction—and with Journey as your owner’s rep, you have a team of experts on your side!
