    If you are interested in the business side of finishing the Modern Mountain Getaway, then this video is for you! I will be talking about the final inspection and what we failed, as well as the other business aspects of finishing and getting paid for the project!
    All of these tasks are common workload for contractors everywhere, yet not many people talk about how things actually happen. This should give you an idea of what some of these contractor “homework” tasks look like.

    Oh the paperwork, the one of dozens of parts no one considers when they think contractors make too much. Congrats!

    Wow, that is a lot of formality... I guess in many ways it protects everyone involved. Good job Erik!

    Construction lawyer here. Nice overview of the back-office part of being a contractor. There's a lot more to building a project than swinging a hammer. I've seen way too many projects where the workmanship has been great, but the project becomes a mess from liens and payment disputes. Good luck on your next project; looking forward to the videos.

    So, i've been starting watching this channel on this series. Great work guys. I thought, when i began watching, it would be a budget build. But after 10 or so episodes I learned this are high end builds you guys are doing. Insane work, really nice to watch. Getting hooked at the mountain series as I am typing this. Keep up the good work!

    Interesting to hear how financing works in the US. It's much simpler here in Slovakia (Europe). Client just sends requested photos of ongoing build steps and we release certain amount of money. By we I mean a bank as I work in one.
    PS: I am a fellow builder, fabricator, welder, you name it. Sometimes I do work for my bank clients as well. Don't tell anybody. 😂

    When you say that the bank pays you after the job, does that mean you as builders have to foot the bill of the build throughout the process then be reimbursed at one time in the end? Or do you get paid by the bank/homeowner regularly throughout the build?

    • @samson9609
      @samson9609 3 года назад

      I assume they use the profits from prior projects to pay employees biweekly/ semi-monthly.

    • @herrameise
      @herrameise 3 года назад +3

      It depends exactly how the construction loan is structured, but generally the builder has a draw schedule and will get paid incrementally by the bank as he hits certain milestones. So what he's likely referring to here is just the final payment, not the entire cost of the build

      In our county we just have to sign that we visually checked for “good” air sealing. No gaps into the building envelope.

    Hey Eric!
    Why don't you just create checklists of everything that needs to be ready for inspection for every project?
    Anyways, awesome videos👌
