How long should an inspection period be?

I heard that the least you want to do as a wholesaler on a really good day would be 7-10 days. As a beginner, I think that’s way too tight.

Since I’m just starting out, could I do 30? We’re not in a really good market, so I’m not expecting sellers to balk at this. Would realtors have a heart attack?

I heard that the normal inspection period for a retail contract is 10-15 days. I’d like to ask for 30.

If they’re really sloppy properties and they’re a train-wreck and a mess, can I put 90?
