Phew - Made it on to BP before the end of birthday deadline to wish you the best today and this year!

Now if you miss a deadline in the contract, or one of your contingencies is not met (Satisfactory inspection, Bank final approval, Appraisal etc) then the contract falls apart and someone else could get the deal. 

Or if the work is completed before the deadline then there will be an extra incentive.

Now your agent (or the teams transaction coordinator in our case) reviews all deadlines, starts comunicating with all parties: lender, title, agents, inspectors, appraiser etc8.)

Set a deadline today and buy a rental property.

Next time submit a real written offer with proof of funds and an offer expiration deadline in order to be taken seriously.

Start writing everything on it - -the date, time person who delivered the 3 day notice (attach copy of notice), mark down all the rest of the deadlines.

Also make sure to have a deadline listed in the contract for the job to be completed, with a financial penalty for if they go past that date.

I created a deadline to finish the kitchen by posting an add on kijiji (similar to craigslist) to rent the apartment and found a tenant.

Show up on time, meet deadlines, and be reliable.
