Business ProfileforFlipped Out Investments, LLC

April 2023 I hired Josh D******* the owner of Flipped out Investments, LLC, to build a Tiny House with garage. After seven month and numerous inspection fails I canceled the contract due to unsatisfactory performance. The footings were the only thing completed by Dec 2023. Josh agreed with me and my attorney on the phone that his sub-contractor did a dismal job. I reconciled my account after year-end and found that I had overpaid by $10,337.25. I notified Josh and asked for the overpayment to be refunded. I was told that the money was spent on overhead costs etc. which of course has nothing to do with our contract. He finally agreed to give me half of what he owed in the future, I countered with wanting the half in cash he had offered plus a promissory note for the rest with payments for a year. After two weeks Josh responded by offering me 75% of what he owed because he claimed he really did not owe me anything anyway. I know of two other investors (both in their fifties) that had trouble getting their money back (loan) but eventually succeeded; I am 82 years old, that may play a role in this situation.
