I'm curious too....let us know what you find out Scott.I'm having lunch with a VP at one of my small regional lenders this Friday.

I offered one guy who was not paying rent $500 if he could be out by this Friday, and gave him $100 of it up front to show I was serious.

They gave a verbal agreement on a Friday, stating that they would send the contract over early the next week and even going as far to say when they thought they would want to close by.

First of two HARP 2.0 refinances closed last Friday.

Just to clarify once more for the proscrasti-BP-nators :)Does it really end at the very first strike of early Friday the 24th?

Our first and only flip: we bought a foreclosure, closed on a Tuesday, on Friday a lady knocked on the door while we were painting (we put a FSBO sign in the yard day of closing), said her moving van is on the way from out of state, her house purchase fell through, she'll pay all cash and could we have it finished and closed by the next Friday?

I should have booked Friday's return into AUS instead of DFW.

Update:After weeks of maneuvering with a less-than-helpful seller's agent our attorney contacted the underwriter's counsel last Friday.

Nothing is music to ears of a seller like "all cash, no concessions, can you close this Friday?"

I"m tlking about calls on the same day and also rates magically going up from Friday to Saturday (which never happens).
