Even on Christmas and Easter.

Planning on having my first property before Christmas.

Then there’s a possession hearing separate to this which they can also appeal it can take 45 days total in my experience My court hearings are always within 7 - 14 days of filing, unless it's around Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Made the mistake of paying my contractor large sums around Christmas time even though he hadn't met deadlines because he gave me a sob story about needing money for his kids' Christmas presents, big mistake.

If you're concerned about late or missed payments in your market consider incentives to make sure payment is received on time, a minor discount, 12 months on time payments = a gift card at Christmas, etc, etc.Also check your local laws when it comes to fines and specific 'grace periods', you may not have much of a choice in the matter.Good luck!

She was REALLY late around Spring break, vacation time, Christmas/New Year).                                                                                                               

Just try to avoid vacation season like Christmas holidays and summer so you can get full attention of prospective investors..You should also understand the local market for those McMaster rentals.

Yes, this was during the holidays of Christmas and New Year's so I wasn't expecting a miracle but after so many weeks and excuses, other things transpired and I decided it was time to cut my losses and move on. 

They were supposed to be in before Christmas, but there vendor who builds and installs shut down 2 weeks for Christmas.

A realtor was in a mall during Christmas.
