Sounds like you have a one year timeframe. 

Obviously all that is ideal and that is the timeframe we would love to get everything done in.

Dutch was just throwing out terms like "hopeful" and giving arbitrary timeframes, which I'm sure will change from Zoom meeting to Zoom meeting, just like the share price change, which has not changed, despite Dutch saying "any day now" or "next week" in Zoom meetings over the course of many months.If I was an investor, the questions I would be asking on the zoom call would be:1.

If they don't pay within the required timeframe, then I auction off the storage unit and wash my hands of it.

My strategy to reduce the sales costs and maximize the investment in a shorter time frame is using the lease option model.

What’s the timeline for using the HELOC funds, and do you have a plan to pay it off within that timeframe?

Quote from @John Clark: Quote from @Jay Hinrichs:  to me if I was insurance  now that all the fuel is burned seems to me the fire danger has passed at least for the next 5 too 10 years ( time frame for the brush to grow back.. news keep talking about forest management.. there are no forests in those areas is Brush and scraggly oaks..

How much profit at the end do you expect to realize and what time frame do you project to receive it?

However, given that we anticipate completing this project well before that timeframe, I’m exploring alternative solutions to better align with our timeline to get our investment back soonerThank you again for your assistance! 

Thanks There's never any guarantee you're going to get 100% of your own cash back out of the house especially in a short time frame.
