Before Justin became the contractor who helped rescue the Arsenal project, the rehab had already gone through multiple contractors, costly setbacks, and more uncertainty than we ever expected.

In Arsenal Files #1, we introduced Justin and discussed how to find a contractor you can actually trust. Now, we’re taking you back to the beginning to explain why this project needed rescuing in the first place.

Why did we buy the Arsenal house in the first place? What happened with our original contractor, Maurice? Why did we continue moving through contractors—and how close did this project come to falling apart?

In this episode, we unpack the complete story behind the Arsenal rehab, including:

• Why we initially chose this property
• Our original plan for the renovation
• What went wrong with the first contractor
• The warning signs we encountered
• The contractors and setbacks that followed
• Why we ultimately brought Justin into the project
• How we finally got the house across the finish line
• A preview of the completed transformation

This episode reveals the difficult side of real estate investing that rarely makes it onto social media. The wrong contractor can threaten your budget, timeline, and entire investment—but how you respond can determine whether the deal collapses or survives.
