## Example request

We are under contract on 18 Cedar Court. Read the purchase agreement and addenda PDFs and build a timeline of the inspection, appraisal, financing, and closing deadlines, with the responsible party for each. Add reminders to my calendar three days before each date, check the shared Dropbox folder every morning for missing signed documents, and tell me when a deadline is at risk.

## Workflow

1. Read the contract and addenda for dates, contingencies, and responsible parties.
2. Build the timeline and add the calendar reminders you approve.
3. Check the deal folder each morning and report missing documents or risks.

## Result

One timeline for the deal, with an update when something is missing or a date is close.

## Human review

You confirm the dates against the contract. Messages to clients, lenders, or the other agent wait for your review.

## Collaboration

Give your client and transaction coordinator the timeline without your private notes.
