Contractor left in middle of job
Dear fellow investors, my "licensed" contractor left me in the middle of the renovation of my first property? I hired him because I was looking for a "peace of mind".

Did he complete $25k worth of work? This happens when a contractor has underestimated the work and realizes this so he bounces. Licensed or not contractors are known to not be the best businessman. If you feel he provided work that equates to what you paid him then you will need to start looking for another person. If he did not provide the amount of work for what you have paid thus far then I would file a complaint with the state board that oversees his license.
Sorry to hear you are going through this but dont stress. There are other contractors out there that can step in.
Best of luck
