What's the best closing date? First deal closing!!

[Michael Worden]

My wife and I are closing in on our first deal, and are pretty excited.  We've learned a lot by reading through these forums.  

We have one specific question for the forum.    Our current tentative close date is September 1st.   But, things are moving a bit slowly and we're concerned we may not have enough time to close and find renters.   We also know Sep 1 is a good window for movers and we don't want to miss that.    But we are leaning towards pushing the close to 9/15 to give ourselves enough time.  

Which would be better - 9/1 or 9/15?  Thanks for any thoughts or advice.
