What was your thought process on making that bold move?

There are several types of GCs, perhaps he is not the right PM for you. 1st form of GC 1 person with a contractors license plus 1-2 guys (couldn't really finish the job on time and on budget, tends to give you a low price but during the work, you get yelled at because it's not their fault that this or that happened), 2nd form 1 licensed person 5 workers + specialty subs (could finish on time, tends to give you a low bid but every nut and bold will be a change order), 3rd form 1 licensed + 2-3 supers + all subs (decent overhead, on time and on budget, they wouldn't issue a change order if it's something below $1,000), 4th form 1 corporate license + several project managers + several superintendents + a lot of supervisors (design and build contractors or above).

I would love to hear the feedback and since it is refundable it seems it should be in bold in contract that escrow agent sends money back to investor within the 21 days or 30..... with a written notice to seller, saying money back no matter what and for whatever reason during due diligence period.Thoughts??

Some businesses are more bold and will hire the head anticipating growth which means running with a loss or some debt, but if you don't grow that is going to eat away at you.The One Thing - This book I found very enlightening and great for creating focus and effectiveness.
