In Australasia, a Seller has the ability to charge penalty interest (usually 12-14% of the purchase price per annum calculated on a daily basis) on the purchase price if the Buyer delays closing for any reason - however this is usually only a right as between the Seller (Party A i.e. legal owner of the property) and the end-buyer (party C) because of privity of contract rules - third parties (i.e. assignees) would usually have to go through the original buyer (party B) to make a claim for damages.

I see it daily here as they flock to the meeting then jump in the low end deals.

I hope you like Cuban food.

I have cruised the area in question daily for the past year, and am about to start direct calling landlords to see who wants to sell.  

Forget only one weekends, leave them up all week and take advantage of the daily commuter traffic.

I see a similar question to this on here almost daily- I don't know why people gravitate towards cash out refis without considering a HELOC.

Just like in the food industry, presentation is everything.  

Try to get him to understand that he does have piles of cash sitting around losing tons of income daily.

If I was a passive investor, outside the standard background checks I would seek someone who hustles and pounds the pavement with solid daily rituals.
