Did the contract lay out specific milestones and a payment schedule for each of those milestones? 

I remember the 400,000 milestone.  

And that you will have a friend stop by weekly and for each milestone you decide, primer? 

I'm hopeful that we'll see better hard money pricing come back in June/July as more states/cities continue to achieve milestones in reopening their economies.

Have a well documented payment schedule with milestones would be helpful to keep the project moving.4- HELOC or cash out refi if you would benefit from a refi regardless.

Once a quarter (Jan 1, Apr 1, July1, Oct 1), Airbnb evaluates certain milestones to determine if you've reached Superhost status.

It makes the most sense to pay a flat fee with incentives built in for budget and time milestones.  

Congrats on a huge milestone.

Very inspirational story so please keep us up with the rest of your milestones!!

Of course the work has to be done according  to current building codes, however, the same scenario in many places in the states (specifically in California) is completely different, because you have to schedule a city inspection for each construction milestone (rought electrical, rough plumbing ing, sheetrock, stucco and so on) and each inspection could take  4-6 weeks before the inspector is available to come to the site (at least that is the case in the bay area).
