If this property is picked up hoping to start before December and finish before February - I understand there are holidays in between but I'm willing to pay a bonus if we finish on schedule. 

It is a holiday weekend and we will not be able to find movers in such short notice to move in.

They cannot find a moving company during holiday (Thanksgiving week). 2.

Probably not, most groups shut down for holidays.

But I see crazy thoughts going through your mind, you need to relax a little and possibly apologize to her - you told her to get out, she's probably not going to pay rent now (if she was paying).

Post-Rehab the rent was only able to increase to $1250/mo, but I also had the vacancy in January and early February which made it more challenging to find tenants since it literally went on the market the first week of January after the holidays.

I can qualify for a private money loan or hard money loan but because it's the holidays and crunch time, I didn't want to work under that much pressure so I assigned it to a trusted and experienced investor.

With the holidays things have been slow but I don't see it being vacant much longer.

Most of the HUD asset managers have relaxed any enforcement of their long standing policy of not allowing any marketing of the property while you have it under contract.
