deposit applied towards their balance due. Purchaser shall pay the balance of 10% of the

pay the balance by the due date will result in a default and the forfeiture of any deposit(s)
paid. In the event of a default the next highest bidder may be notified by Bid4Assets. Sheriff

defaulting party shall be liable to the plaintiff and/or the Sheriff for any and all costs incurred for
the resale of the property.
