Contingencies & Deadlines
Contingencies & Deadlines
Protect the client. Protect the deal.
The inspection report lands on a Friday at 4:40. It’s forty-one pages, and your buyer is already scared. What happens next isn’t about the roof. It’s about knowing which clock is running.
Together we’ll walk through:
How the PA counts: days, business days, and when the clock actually starts
One worked timeline, federal holiday included
The inspection contingency, and why silence means “deemed satisfied”
Repair caps, WDI and moisture reports, and the walk-through
The appraisal gap, worked out in real dollars
Financing deadlines and the HOA resale certificate
Then we practice it live: a calendar drill where you count every deadline on a ratified file and defend each date out loud.
You’ll leave with a deadline calculator, a one-page contract timeline for your wall, and an appraisal gap worksheet.
A missed deadline doesn’t care how long you’ve been licensed, and neither does a nervous buyer. This is the session that protects your reputation. Agents from every brokerage are welcome.
