It has been a long journey. Yes, it could have been longer but for me it was long enough. We have found a home, had an offer accepted - finallly, worked through the loan process - we hope, and will be closing on Thursday.
The loan process has been more than a headache. We choose the wrong loan agent and should have walked away sooner. We did even consider loosing this house is how bad it was. But finally they came through. Once they approved the loan though, they messed some things up and when we should have been closed already, then the date was pushed back to this Monday, then Wednesday and now it is Thursday. We pray it will continue to stay Thursday and that we close just fine.
One problem this has caused us was that we need to be out of our apartment by Wednesday. We gave our complex our 30 day notice after we had started the loan process. It was going to be just fine because the loan officer said she would have the loan done within 10 days. They have been ridiculous to work with.
The whole story of trying to get this house is long and enough to make anyone disgusted so I won't go into it. Thinking about it all is not good for my blood pressure either, so it is probably for the best. We will focus on the good. We are closing on Thursday. We have found a wonderful piano in the classifieds and an amazing dresser. We have yet to get a refrigerator, a stove range and hood, dishwasher, clothes washer or dryer. Priorities.
Ha Ha Priorities? I love how the piano comes first. I mean you can eat out and they have laundromats right? Wishing you luck with the close.
