Filing for eviction will happen on Thursday when the deadline to quit expires.

In order to meet the debt free deadline at the end of 5 years of the ARM you'd have to reallocate huge amounts of dollars to principal reduction and another cost not factored in is the opportunity cost of that money being contributed to real estate equity which is very illiquid.

Property is owned in estate of landlord who passed so children selling it and have deadline of next April before they finalize the estate so there is some motivation there.  5.

thats the only advice that i can give.As an agent who has quite a fw short sale listings all i can say is that the agent wants to close that deal probably more than you want to by the house ,, so if you arent getting a response it is because the agent isnt getting an answer from the lender...i have had offers come in and it has taken up to 9 weeks to get an answer ..now as this market continues to do what it is doing the lenders are speeding it up.my best advice is dont take your self out of the deal with your own timelines and when you talk to the agent find out what other offers are in to make sure that you have the stronest offer....and if you are not thats okay make sure the offer your making makes sense for what you are trying to do .because alot of times just like your doing the offer ahead of you will cancell because they are getting impatient and weakest offer that came hrough ends up being the one that gets the home....and as a guy who gets about 50 phone calls a day from agents and buyers alike wanting to know what te staus is on there short sale or reo offer...AS SOON A "WE" THE AGENT REPRESENTING THE PROPERTY HAS ANY SORT OF ANSWER FROM THE BANK THE FIRST THING WE DO IS CALL YOU..so be patient and realize the agent as hard as you push them and give them deadlines and vent all your frustrations,,are just as frustrated as you and want to close as fast as possible.

I've seen more than one miss the deadline.

Should I put a deadline on my offer to help them decide, or should I wait patiently and assume the delay is due to difficulties in probate, and be considerate of their whole situation. 

People do not make the best decisions when they are on a deadline.

The 180days closing deadline is next week.  

If they live there month to month, be aware of the dead line for notices.

With the auction deadline in mind, of course. 1.
