Progress payments to be made upon your inspection and approval, holding out at least 10% until final inspection and approval of any permits, and 30 days after completion or until unconditional lien releases are submitted for all subs and materials for which preliminary 30 day notices have been filed.In larger time sensitive projects you can also negotiate for of a performance bond which would compensate you for failure to complete the project on time and to the specifications in the contract.Always check the status of the contractors license with your state contractors licensing agency and verify that the guy signing the contract actually is the contractor whose license is being provided.

I'm not sure if Indiana offers a non-NFIP insurance option or not but if they are like Ohio than NFIP is your only option... however not all agents understand how NFIP works or how to give you coverage options.If your main goal is checking the box for flood insurance at the lowest possible cost I would suggest asking the bank what is the least amount of coverage  and what is the maximum deductible they will accept - then get an agent to quote it that way.I'm NOT saying this is a good idea to insure your property this way - you really need to investigate the risk and talk with your agent on what your level of risk tolerance is.Many agents will try and quote it at the full reconstruction cost amount like it's an owner occupied property.
