Determine unrealistic short timeframe and add if he may exceed this deadline price will be lowered.Of course it depends on average costs from your area and on size of property😎

Cabinets 1/2" out of level front to back,  installing cabinets 1" to far to the left resulting in having to remove material from another cabinet and remove sheetrock to finish out.If I take him to court, 7k includes bids of contractor to complete, my markup because you've been a pain in my ***, and lost revenue from deadline not being met. 

Move the deadline to day 3 if you want, but make sure you stay within state laws (ie in CA, if the 1st is a weekend or holiday the landlord must accept the payment on the next business day as "on time"--a business day is when BANKS are open, not when you are "open" to collect rent).  

Are you past your loan commitment (aka "loan conditions") deadline on the contract with the selling bank?

Our current broker has never missed a deadline or had a loan fall through after he pre-approved the buyer.

I would give your property manager a deadline, and also call their principal broker or the owner of the company and speak with them about the lack of performance of your property manager.  

One example I thought of was to start the rent 50$ higher than it would be and give a $10 discount on rent each month that it was paid on time up to 5 consecutive months and as long as they kept it up the rent would stay to $50 less than they started but if they miss just one deadline for rent then the full $50 would come back on top of the normal rent and they would start over again, pay on time for 5 consecutive months for $10/mth.Or another idea was to give a credit.

It is a lot easier (and often cheaper) to fix them before the deadline of closing comes into play.

Figured I'd throw this out there and see what response I get.Spoke with an Attorney out of Portland yesterday (I was looking for advice on an Option to Purchase contract in OR) and explained these primary points within the contract:- Agreed upon purchase price is stated by the contract- Reasonable Earnest money deposit exchanges hands- A deadline that, if not optioned by that date, would be utterly null & void with no-recourse available.He said this is completely normal, if you don't record, expect to get swooped in on.We progressed our converstion into Licensing in OR for REI.  

Bella will give 60% of their monthly lease back to purchasing the property if they are on time with their lease payments.Dont have a good feeling as there's no live person to talk to & they keep pushing their 10 days deadline acceptance of offer.
