I highly recommend 51west properties, they're guaranteed and secured.

You can get another $5-10 per night just for allowing pets (don't forget to take a security deposit). 

. - that were new when the S8 tenant moved in 1-2 years ago.Another challenge of finding S8 tenants is many EXPECT you to waive application fees and security deposits. 

Always ask for references and examples of similar projects (pictures)The Red Flags you have to Avoid:Lowball bids (too good to be true often is).Poor communication or delays in responding.Hesitation to provide references or sign a detailed contract.Cash-only deals or pushy behavior to secure the job.

You could setup something where the fees are deferred until you secure the construction loan and then pay them 1.5-2x their standard fee if they waited the 6-18 months to get paid.

@Ben Berg, welcome to BP and great work securing your house hack!

For your existing primary, you will need to have it leased with the security deposit and first month's rent collected.

This includes, water, hot water, heat, air conditioning, cable, security system, snow removal, lawn care.

Granted that is higher than other cheaper ones out there, but I feel it is worth it.

Or, a charging order may be granted.
