Just make sure to document everything and keep communication open.

@Itay Heled Last year, Furnished Finder published a document called "the state of mid term rentals" and it showed that the users of FF want studios, 1 bed and 2 bed proerties. the demand for 3-4 bedrooms significantly drop. 

Another reason I'm somewhat stuck on the idea of real estate investing as an out-of-country investor is because I plan/hope to document the entire process and post some content on youtube etc.

When ever I had gotten too persistent about sending photos, he would change the subject or find a reason why he couldnt document the progress.  

If the police came they probably did not come and document the damages, get the report.   

Having agreed upon SOVs, payment schedules, retainage, design documents, and well written contracts really take a lot of the "unknowns or potential problems" out of the process.

Re-read your contracts, document your correspondence (and attempts) with your builder and demand documentation to match up any payments/draws with what's actually been competed on your build.

What documentation will you require at closing?
