Primary residence rehab “hiccups”

Davis County Utah

So yesterday I got a call that My moms primary residence rehab was due to be complete around December 15th but her contractor parted ways as of yesterday. She is two weeks out from appraisal(we already extended deadline once) and after walking through there is a decent amount of work remaining. (I’ll put what needs done on the bottom of my post)

Im mostly looking for a path forward. She is stressed because she is living without a kitchen and has a travel nursing contract she is supposed to leave the state for in early January so will be unable to manage contractors. (The work was originally supposed to be completed in October but after a change of contractors and some added work they had agreed on December 15th) she needed the appraisal to go through because she wants to move forward on building up a retirement portfolio (partially rentals) The deadline for the appraisal can be adjusted Again I believe but there may be a fee for doing so. She also had a budget at the beginning of the project which is not all used up but I worry finding a new contractors on short notice may put us close to hitting it given the remaining work but I’m not experienced enough to know.

Is finding a good contractor on short notice possible?

What would you guys do walking in on this situation?

My understanding of the work that needs done is as follows

The largest project is a hole that has been dug with a drain in place for an exterior concrete staircase to the basement but the stairs still need poured. (There is now snow in the hole but the drain/pad and basement door are already in place) the rest is moving some plumbing in the floor for a bathroom (about 7 feet) and then some minor electrical (a couple fixtures & wiring existing electrical for this area into the circuit breaker) drywall, flooring, trim/doors, cabinets, painting, placing appliance’s and setting the toilet, tub & two sinks. The unfinished section that she was hoping to have done is a studio apartment and master bath adu. It is a approximately 28x11.5 foot rectangle with a 9x5

Foot master bath.

Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated!
