Due to the risk (raw ground and new construction) and duration of the project, I would bet the farm that this project, would almost never, if ever be funded by hard money stance.

@Eric Lee Nation I did ins claims in another life for 14 years - I do not recommend that EVER as someone's employment but I did learn a few things.Here's 2 things agents or no one will tell you -- your Replacement value (RV) on the house is JUICED up way higher than what's realistic -- however you have a relatively inexpensive house so it's not much of an issue - but typically the reason they juice the RV is to get your wind/hail deductible higher -- typically 1%, 2%, 3%, 5% of RV is what your wind/hail deductible will be even if you had a $1k or whatever other deductible they offer for any other peril -- so follow me for a minute - you bought a rental for $150k -- they've juiced the replacement cost to $250k the most likely loss in KS or the midwest in general is going to be wind/hail --- the math actuarial nerds do this so the casino or the ins company in this case has the upper hand -- do the math what a 2% or 3% deductible on a $250k house will be -- I have a commercial building insd for over a million -- the lowest wind/hail ded they will give me is 5% -- the only reason I have ins at this point is I'm required to -- the wind hail coverage is worthless to me with as high as the deductible is.Anyways with that out of the way - ask your agent if you have a 3% option - at that RCV cost they figured of $99k that wouldnt be much different than the $2500 all perils coverage you have now -- Also I'd wager as someone mentioned dropping the med payments to others coverage -- it probably wont make a bit of difference in your policy cost -- I could be wrong - but I'd guess $25-50 dollars a year -- your coverage is the price it is due to the perceived wind/hail risk the company is putting on KS.I'm with Big Red and have been for a # of years -- your price to insure that house is on par with what I get from them for that replacement cost -- though i think State Farms game is a bit different they really jack up the Replacement cost so I have higher wind/hail deductibles -- I'd make out good if the house burnt down or a tornado destroyed it - but for a hail claim there wouldnt be much there.
