I ordered a contactor from Expert Appliance, and it's been 3 weeks, and still no part, and I can't get any response to my inquiries. 3 weeks is a long time to have the heat and AC not functioning.The local shops won't sell to anyone who isn't licensed for HVAC, so I need a supplier on-line.Ruud heat pump; hardly anyone carries parts for them.

Things lenders look at: Value of the asset used as collateralLocation of the asset (Strong markets justify higher risk) Experience of the builder/flipper Track record in the business Other Things that can be done to help mitigate risk:Solid project in a strong market, with an appraisal (comps work if the lender is knowledgeable on market)Experienced builder or flipperThorough cost breakdown so that all costs are known, and there are no surprises.Have a plan in place to manage funding to insure subs/suppliers are paid on time, etc.Inspection or progress reports on a regular basis (with internet it's easy to document the progress of jobs with video, pictures, etc.)
