Gordon Myers is not just the founder of LA Construction Consultants; he’s also one of Los Angeles’s most trusted construction advisors. With over 30 years of experience in real estate and construction (beginning back in 1988), Gordon combines deep industry knowledge with a genuinely approachable style. His client-first philosophy means that every project benefits from his expertise, integrity, and personal dedication.

Over Three Decades of Industry Experience

Gordon’s career spans more than three decades of excellence in the building industry. He launched his journey in the Los Angeles real estate market in 1988, quickly learning the ins and outs of properties and development in the city. In 2021, he took that expertise to the next level by becoming a licensed General Contractor, adding hands-on construction credentials to his name. This rare combination of real estate savvy and construction know-how gives Gordon a unique 360° perspective on every project he undertakes.

Safety-Driven Innovation & Expertise

Safety and compliance are at the heart of Gordon’s work. When Los Angeles introduced the Soft Story Retrofitting Ordinance in 2016, he recognized a vital need to help property owners strengthen their buildings. In response, Gordon devised an innovative business model to guide owners through seismic retrofitting. He began connecting property owners with three or more reputable, experienced contractors from his trusted network – ensuring every client finds the right team for the job and receives the highest standard of service for critical structural upgrades.

For Gordon, building safety isn’t just a buzzword – it’s personal. He witnessed the devastation of the 1994 Northridge earthquake and took to heart the lessons from the 2017 Mexico City earthquake. These events were stark reminders that vulnerable “soft-story” buildings can collapse during a major quake. Those experiences have fueled his drive to ensure every structure he works on is properly reinforced and up to code. By emphasizing proactive upgrades and strict compliance, Gordon helps clients rest easy knowing their properties are better protected when the earth shakes.

Client-Focused Approach

With numerous residential and commercial projects under his belt throughout Los Angeles, Gordon has honed a truly client-focused approach to construction consulting. He believes in keeping clients informed and confident at every step. That means providing clear communication, honest guidance, and strategic, safety-first solutions tailored to each project’s needs. Whether it’s a home remodel or a multi-unit retrofit, Gordon makes sure his clients understand their options and feel empowered to make the best decisions.

What truly sets Gordon apart is his approachable personality. Clients often comment on how his down-to-earth demeanor and sense of humor help take the stress out of complex projects. He makes it a point to be accessible and supportive, turning what can be an overwhelming construction process into a smoother, more enjoyable experience for everyone involved. Working with Gordon isn’t just effective – it’s also a breath of fresh air.

Community Roots & Personal Achievements

Having proudly called Sherman Oaks home for nearly 40 years, Gordon is deeply rooted in the local community. He has built lasting relationships throughout the Los Angeles area – from clients and colleagues to neighbors and city officials. This long-term local presence means he understands the region’s unique building challenges and community needs like few others, and he’s passionate about serving his hometown with excellence.

Gordon’s talents and interests extend well beyond the construction world. He is an accomplished entrepreneur and investor who has founded successful ventures outside of contracting. He’s also a published author of five books, an avid world traveler, and a trained public speaker. These diverse experiences give him a broad perspective and plenty of creative insight, which often spark innovative solutions in his professional work. In short, Gordon brings a wealth of knowledge to the table – and not just about construction.

Committed to Your Peace of Mind

Ultimately, Gordon’s goal is to give every client peace of mind. He is widely recognized as a master negotiator and communicator – skills he uses to advocate for his clients’ best interests and ensure every detail of a project is handled with care. Above all, Gordon is committed to helping clients protect their investments and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a safe, successful project.
