They will play the "it's xmas time" card at you.it's just about getting the ball rolling. after 5 days, post a pay or quit notice. they either pay (with late fee) or they quit. if not, evict.it sets a precedent for the future; trust me, I had a tenant (when I 1st started out) who was late.

Don't pull this card until you have already got them down on price as far as possible.

Steve you must put a deposit by credit card before you can bid. and if you are the high bidder even though it may state that the bid did mot meet the price they will want you to wire EM money to closing agent within 2 hours
