My initial thought was that I would wait out the first month to see if T1 was going to send the full amount by the time frame that she claimed she would.

Over the 20 year time frame that might be 2 more down payments for you.

Got started in flipping during the easy money days of 2004-2006 by signing up for new homes and selling them after construction-typical 4-6 months time frame.

I agree, if the time frame was short it owuld be viewed as an expense to the property, if it were only in the "anticipation of" it could be a different outcome, I'd think.

I kinda wonder if you're in a corporate plant, if the player at the top making such requests understands the levels and time frames of concern vs the customary amount of due diligence.

This strategy involves buying the option to purchase a property at a certain price, within a certain time-frame.

August is the biggest rental/moving time frame, going into September.

But I think this still gives me an edge coming out of college, when compared with most other recent grads.My goal is to have 5k passive income from rental units before I turn 30, giving me a 6 year time frame.

Each unit has potential to generate 5-7k annual after-tax net cash flow, which seems worth my while.I'm trying to figure out the best way to finance both of these projects especially given the short timeframe that they might close within one another.

As far as their turn times, I have loaned them money and been paid off in as little as 30 days but the average time frame seems to be about 3-4 months.
