I think VRBO/HomeAway rewards you for playing by all of their silly rules (number of pictures, response time, reviews, etc.) and lot of people don't like that.

I wonder if I should take it all the way to the finish and borrow more money with little to no more reward or just see what happens on the mls.

I just got 60 days no interest, and I increase my cc rewards which I use to buy materials later.

If they have no skin in the game other than labor, they will not be there in the event of a loss-Reality is most contractors would just rather have the money and do not have a system in place to wait for the big prize at the endThe best way to handle the contractor relationship is to treat them well, pay on time and be accessible when needed. 

VRBO/HomeAway allows you to have up to 50 and rewards you with better search rankings for having more high quality photos.

Helens last summer, along with many more training hikes that were both difficult and rewarding.

I hope a fair system is implemented that rewards contribution instead of arbitrary unwritten practices that are being carried out now. 

It was a rewarding but extremely stressful experience for my first time.

But the reward is high much more if your Virtual Assistant is on the same page with you to grow.

Good luck with your first deal, real estate investing is a rewarding experience!
