Not lost hope

Due diligence is one of the biggest silent killers of deals — especially for newbie who don’t realize the game is more clock management than contract magic. Here’s how pros stay ahead of the squeeze: ⏳ 1. Ask for extensions BEFORE you need them. You plant the seed early: “Market’s been slow getting appraisals back…” “We’re waiting on docs the seller should be sending…”This makes delays normal — and extensions easier. 📄 2. Use the contract to buy yourself more time. Most sellers THINK they’ll send you documents quickly.Reality? It takes them 4–8 weeks — every time.That delays the Effective Date and stretches your runway. 📬 3. Document EVERYTHING. Weekly email updates = legal cover. You’ll never get blamed for delays you didn’t cause. 🏆 4. And when the deal is HOT? Sometimes you take the shorter window. You don’t lose a $150K+ payday arguing over 5 extra days. The real skill isn't due diligence…it’s controlling the clock. 💬 What’s the longest DD extension YOU’VE successfully negotiated? Drop it below — someone here needs your wisdom.
