Expectation: 30-day NNN close, clean Phase I, 6.5% cap, SNDA done. Reality: DSCR shifts at 4:59pm, appraiser 'subject to roof', ALTA delayed. Lender: need estoppels; Tenant: who's Estoppel; Me: CAM recon like CSI 🤡 Owner: full price, as-is; Buyer: TI + 6 months free; Me: sending LOI rev #17 📉 Deal survives on duct tape, cold brew, and the HVAC serial number I memorized.
