The developer ask for a 30 day close because time is money. He is paying interim financing interest on each home he builds. Some home loan processes can go on forever, costing the builder more money.

Great post. You hit the nail right on the head. Prior to the new regulations that Government imposed in 2012, a 30 day close on a pre-approved client was no problem. Now it can be done but it could be a problem for the reasons posted.
Iam surprised that the Developer let a sale get away for a mere 15 days difference in closing. Indeed, sales must be very good.
