To make a long story short, last year (fall 2018) we had hired a contractor to build a garage, and materials that were paid for and "ordered" never showed up.

Nothing in the licensing study materials and testing will teach you anything about real estate investing or wholesaling. 

My brother-N-Law wanted to get into real estate with me so he helped fund the deal and pay for the materials needed.

The confidentiality obligations of this agreement shall remain in effect for a period of one (1) year from the disclosure of the Material to you.

I just re-wried a complete 2 story for about $2500 in materials ($$AFCI breakers are the killer), completed & inspected to code in a week of half days.

Which can of course leak and depending on the material stored in them can be the cause of extensive environmental damage.Ive originated over 600 commercial mortgage notes and purchased about 50 others, usually 24-60 months into their life cycle.

It is unlikely that labor and materials will be cheaper at some undefined point in the future as prices tend to go up! 

Any violation shall be deemed a material violation of the Lease Agreement.

To repair the drywall then paint ,I think the $750 is on the cheaper side .  1 trip to look at it , 1 trip to pick up materials and repair and 1st coat of mud , 1 trip for second coat of mud , and 1 trip to sand and paint the entire ceiling .
