We were low-balled by our contractor, he dragged his feet for months, took the initial payment and has since disappeared.

After inspections that can change but initially i'd have a buffer.

My initial term with him was a 6 months deal.

I was initially under the impression that a lien was only placed on the house if payments were missed, I didn't know that the lien is placed automatically as a condition of the roof financing in the first place, but that does make more sense.

As we talked more, she became more and more responsive but initially our exchanges included some very long breaks in between replies, with me often having to reach back out.

Initially I was happy to move forward, but the COVID crisis appears to be becoming a longer issue than initially thought.

Grow fast and  worry about profits doesn't work anymore if the exit strategy is to go public (stock exchange - initial public offering). 

Nothing has changed.That initial down payment money (60k for both scenarios) would still be subject to the same taxes?

I also like that it’s automated so once you and the tenant set it up initially, you don’t have to do anything each subsequent month.

I have done all my initial investigation, and number crunching with my realtor to conclude this is a deal to chase.
