get_contingency_deadlines
Calculate contingency dates (inspection, appraisal, loan, closing) for an escrow.
Calculate contingency dates (inspection, appraisal, loan, closing) for an escrow. ALL ARGUMENTS ARE OPTIONAL. With NO arguments, defaults to the user's most-recent active escrow — call this directly when the user asks "what are my deadlines" or "show me contingency dates" without specifying an escrow. Pass escrow_id to target a specific escrow, OR acceptance_date to compute hypothetically. Day counts default to CAR standards (inspection 17, appraisal 17, loan 21, closing 30); override only if non-standard periods were negotiated. Returns calculated dates only — not legal advice.
