For some, a side hustle is driving for Uber or cutting yards.
For JR McGaha, it was building homes.
“My wife and I got married in 1990,” he said. “We hired a builder for our first home, and I was really intrigued by the whole process.”
McGaha said he got his contractor’s license in 2003. For the next 15 years, he said, he averaged building “a home to a home-and-a-half” per year, all while holding down a full-time information-technology job at Kenco Logistics.
McGaha said that in 2018, he finally decided to leave Kenco and launch Core Homes.
