How profitable is selling building materials?.

[Heatman]

It is true that it is a capital intensive business. It is highly profitable though. Also, one can specialize in the sales of just one type of building material and it would still be successful.

I have never seen a poor man that is into the Business of selling building materials because that business is booming very well all over the states.

The selling of building materials is a business that is capital intensive which means that you will need a huge amount of money to go into this kind of business to make profit from it.

You don't have to wait until you have huge amount of money before you can start the business. This is a business that can be started from scratch if you know what you are doing. You don't have to wait until you have money to buy all the building merchandise. You can start from those one you can get cheaply in the market.

I believe this should be very lucrative at the moment. Currently there are so many constructions going up, development going on both private and government ones. So selling these materials would be a good business.

The business can get to boom in developing areas. Most people are likely to revert on the real estate investments because most of them believe that they can find their financial freedom through that.

Probably, anything that relates to building is always very much in demand. I currently work in a dredging site and the demand for sands for building on daily basis is high.

Someone can make up to 40% to 50% profits from a truck of cement. That is a very good margin when you consider that most businesses don't have such kinds of margins.

I do not know how it will be in other countries but in mine it is quite profitable due to the amount of works that are always active and the number of new houses and large real estate market in the country.
