Give them a hard deadline to pay in full (30 days should be sufficient).

I do know that most TX counties follow a deadline of protest May 15 or 30 days after notice is issued, whichever is later.

I do have a rough idea of the area where I would be interested purchasing a SFH, but the numbers seem like a tight fit.

Especially in this real estate market with inventory so tight, sellers typically try to get full market value.

My biggest concern with this deal is that I'm not sure if I'm running it too tight?

Sit tight, relax and set up a DRIP reinvesting the Dividends account.

If the seller is sophisticated and the contract you've used is not tight he could sue you for non-performance even though you don't have any $. 

Neighbor to one of my rentals listed their property last week. The cutoff to submit offer was today, so didn't have time to secure financing prior. I have one partner that will cover 25%. We only gave ourselves a few ...

Ton of risk in forking over the initial capital to get setup, you get no depreciation, and industrial is pretty darn hot too, so I'd think the location would be really poor or need a lot of work if a landlord really was open to it.I'm sure this happens in very tight coastal markets, but with larger operators and very long lease terms.

If you were modeling 3.5% rate last week and put in an LOI, now rates are 4.5%, assuming the deal tight due to low cap rates, it may no longer pencil which will lower the price ceiling.Real estate is a lagging indicator, you won't hear about it until after deals have blown up.
