Building a Builder Brand with Brad Leavitt

I so enjoyed recording this podcast with Brad Leavitt, President of A Finer Touch Construction, LLC. He is a very dynamic person, a fantastic builder, husband and father. His career has really blossomed and what he has accomplished in branding himself through his work and social media is very inspiring.   

Brad was born and raised in San Diego, CA as the oldest of 6 children. He grew up in the Construction industry and worked as an electrician throughout High School for Grove Electric with his 2 uncles. 

Brad accepted an offer in 2005 with Trend Homes, a local production home builder in Phoenix, AZ. He worked 1 year as a superintendent before accepting a dream job building custom homes. Rowland Luxury Homes hired Brad in 2006 and immediately he was assigned to be a Project Manager at the 300MM Omni Montelucia Resort and Spa in Paradise Valley, AZ. Brad oversaw the construction and completion of 34 Custom homes that ranged between 2-4MM each. After completion of the 34 custom homes, he then assisted with the completion of the hotel guest rooms, arrival zone, lodge and spa. After Montelucia was complete, Brad worked on numerous other residential and commercial projects in the greater Phoenix Area. In the Fall of 2011, Brad was ready to begin his own company. He joined with his partner Dave Clark to create and manage their own personal real estate portfolio. 

Brad is a very approachable, easy going guy and was such a delight to interview for this podcast. His energy is infectious and his positive can do approach to building and branding his business is remarkable. Check out his work and videos on Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn – he nails it.
