On the bright side, the sellers got all their stuff out of the house by the deadline, so as soon as the house is officially closed, we can start work.EDIT: Just got word from the closing attorney that the negotiator is requesting a rush approval letter to extend the closing date to today.

I'm waiting for official word but I think the TC will omit these two.

Buyer and seller negotiate these repairs, and assuming they come to agreement, the buyer will generally agree that the "inspection period" or "due diligence period" is now officially over (even if all the time hasn't elapsed in the period).7.

:)Keep in mind that COC return is not a metric that is governed by any official standards body, so there's actually no "right" answer to this question.

Local officials are launching a "robocall" system that will repeatedly dial the phone numbers on the signs with a recorded message until the signs are removed and the culprits pay a fine.

REO counter offers are rarely made on an official contract (and aren't signed), so there is nothing legally binding by a bank counter-offer.

Is it common for a verbal counter of this nature with no paperwork or official correspondence of this nature?

I meet with people every week weather it be an attorney, broker, agent, contractor, city official, etc.

If a city official for that department will not sign and notarize in writing what they are telling you verbally than you can't count on it. 

I am looking put together an official investors group.
