That being said, we just completed an 824 Sq Ft 2 bed/1 bath FULL GUT, and it took us just under 2 months (demo, plumbing, electric, roof, scraping popcorn and re-texturing, drywall, full new bath, full new kitchen, flooring, paint inside and out, landscaping, etc). 

Wainscoating has never paid off for me, a basic drywall with a simple texture and paint with off setting trim color worked well.

Jet Lending is a well-respected hard money lender in the area.   

Basically means you have more money then you’ll ever need (assuming you don’t have expensive hobbies like a private jet lol) which I do.  

Your insurance should cover your contents (flooring, texture on walls, cabinets, light fixtures, etc.) the COA (condo association) will cover Sheetrock out and slab of floor.

Thus, my reasoning for wanting to take down the walls, but as Dave stated, i think doing the knockdown texture on the walls and replacing the ceilings would save me a pretty good chunk of change and would still come out looking pretty nice, which would allow me to do a bit more on kitchen and bathroom upgrades.
