Video recording during construction allows the one funding the project to verify exactly what work has been completed and what materials are on sight before they cut the payment check for the work as claimed by the contractor on the draw request for payment. In the past it has been common for the lender or financer to have Polaroid pictures to back up the draw request. This has been proven to be easily misleading and fraudulent subjecting the lender to substantial losses. These videos can also be used as training videos teaching the bank inspector just what to look for when they are on location at the construction site.
