Give him a call in a panic stricken voice  "  Hey XXXXX  I am sooooooo sorry but you wont believe what happened , we were robbed , somebody broke in over the weekend and stole ALL your stuff .  

This way you can go there after work during weekdays or on weekends easily to manage. 

Spent a couple weekends in July (way too hot!!!!!)

I was doing work on my rental property over the weekend, and the gate was mistakenly left open and my tenants service dog ran away today.

Their mindset is enjoy a restful winter in a nice house in a sunny clime not party hearty for a weekend.  

I have some time in the evenings and weekends to devote as well as ~3% of income to use for educational purposes.

I worked for 3 months hard, then took it back to nights and weekends only during the rest of the years.  

Depending on the day of the week/weekend, I will give them 24-48 hours to pay the deposit and sign the lease.

I had to scramble to raise $800k over a weekend so that I did not burn my bridge and performance history of closing on all transactions on time that I commit to.

I am willing to offer my time in the evenings and weekends helping other experienced investors in the area analyze deals, drive for dollars, marketing, repairs, etc.
