They were professional and worked around my tenants schedule.

@tam tamm I'm sure Prop bros is probably staged too. The

Wilson, at which time he is scheduled to enter a guilty plea.

The only issue is scheduling.

While locking up the contract tell the owner in advanced you'd like to schedule a time to have your funding partner or contractor to come back and see the place.  

Its a lot easier and cheaper to do the repair on your schedule with the house vacant as opposed to waiting until you get a call (always at an inconvenient time) or maybe worse... you don't get a call and the leak or issue goes unaddressed causing collateral damage.  

Learn From IKEA:  Your homes must be easily accessible, appointments must be easy to get, you must work around their schedule, and absolutely must answer your phone.  

I would really like to see if I could get some guidance from the BP community and figure out if we have any recourse.I will keep this as brief as possible.We put in an offer on a house in Michigan.Our realestate agent suggested we put the offer in with a thirty business day close period.We didn’t like the idea and preferred a 45 but, we agreed and our lender related that they would be able to close in that time frame.All of our task to get the loan completed and closed were done in a timely manner.The lender did not schedule the appraisal in a timely manner, then on the day of the appraisal the guy got sick so it was resceduled for a later date  .Once the appraisal was completed, the lender kicked it back for discretionary corrections.At this point we were very much on schedule to miss our close date.Now, we were told several times by our agent who heard it from the seller’s agent that they had a backup cash offer in place and that that offeror had already done an inspection.So we knew they would most likely back out if we busted the close date.However we did get the seller to agree to a week extension, so long as our lender could provide a clear to close based on the date of the extension date.The lender would not provide any firm date, seller was not happy with the banks position and backed out the at the earliest opprtunity.

Scheduling a walk thru with a contractor this week.

If you do follow this path, just be sure to have a firm and short deadline, and continue to work to get the eviction scheduled with the Sheriff in case the occupant is just burning time.
