Anyone ever had to push a closing? Closing is supposed to be next Wednesday but found out stupid bank transfer funds won't be available to wire until end of that day.

Yes happens all the time. Just had a friend who had to push closing today because the certificate of occupancy had not been issued yet even though the house is completed.

It’s very common. A good realtor will help you navigate the details, but it happens more often than you might think.

Thanks for the info

So pissed

The seller might be willing to let you close anyway. My next door neighbor just went through this. He was selling a rental house and the buyer didn't have the money on closing day. My neighbor just took the guy's word that he'd have it the following week, and the guy did come through with the money a few days later.

It’s a simple admin work. Easy to push!

I had to deal with it when I sold my previous condo. Fortunately, it was only a day. No big whoop.

Question for folks with second homes: Considering buying a vacation home but would be primarily for family use. We currently have a primary residence with a mortgage balance of ~640K, so my understanding is I could only deduct the mortgage interest on 110K of the second mortgage to stay under the 750K cap. If I were to buy the second home through an LLC, would that allow me to exceed that 750K since the expenses of the second home would be pass through expenses/income?

He invested maybe 4-5K in time (demolition work) and 2K in cash. I’ve managed the whole thing for 9 months. 10% of gross rents (as a management fee) would be about the same (6-7K)). Bought at low in market just after COVID hit. I want to keep the building. Seems fair to give him his initial investment back + some additional money for market gains. Help!
