I’ve been doing real estate for about 3 years now and I’ve really fallen in love with the process, especially closing deals.

Here's the best practice in this case:Wait until after the current guest checks out before issuing the partial refund.You want to ensure that the rest of their stay goes smoothly and no other issues arise.Once the refund is issued, it's much harder to adjust it if something changes or additional compensation is warranted (or not).This also gives you leverage in case the guest later reports other concerns, you can handle everything in one resolution.Tip:Let the guest know upfront that you’ve noted the refund agreement and it will be processed after their stay is complete.

If you'd like to see it shoot me a message.My process from my very first house flip 11 years ago until today has been to walk the project with my general contractor, explain everything that I'd like to have done in detail, and then give them a few days (up to a few weeks on bigger jobs) to give me a detailed estimate.
