I missed the last one due to a tax deadline I had to work late for.

Consider offering incentives for early payments and implementing a robust collections process.3) Optimize Accounts Payable: Negotiate favorable payment terms with suppliers to extend payment deadlines without negatively impacting relationships.

So $10,000 of work  for 10 days of work.Hopefully your contractor and you have set deadlines .

If that’s the case if you still want to move forward you need to rescind your inspection objection prior to the deadline or the deal terminates.

@Mandi MartinezDid you set deadlines and a scope of work?

The other option is buying from a developer/builder in another state but the build will not be ready until June 2024 which makes it more difficult to fit into the strict deadlines if project is delayed.

If the tenant cancels their reservation after your deadline, make sure you have verbiage that says the security deposit is not refundable due to late cancellation.

They should be able to communicate that to you and give you a soft deadline of when they can send out a check.Secondly, increasing the claim from $8k-$10k will not have a large impact on your rates.

The best part for all of us is that I was able to be on top of all the deadlines.

Although, right now with 9/15 and 10/15 deadline a lot of CPAs are fairly busy.
