Waiting......

So, we are still working on getting a closing date.

IT. IS. DRIVING. ME. CRAZY!

We are getting closer though.

All we are waiting on is Rob's relocation money to be deposited into our account.

THEN, we will have to make a trip to Dayton so I can go to WPCU and get a printout of our bank account showing the deposit and each page has to be signed, stamped and dated by the person that did the printout.

According to the lady in the relocation dept at GM, the funds should be deposited on April 8th, hopefully, she's right.

I would really like to close by April 15th.

Yesterday, Rob had to call a place called "The Worknumber" to get a "salary key" that I could give to the loan processor at Wells Fargo so he could verify Rob's employment & income.  Rob spent 5 minutes on the call.  He almost had a complete meltdown.

I firmly believe that if left to Rob to do everything that is needed to purchase a home, he would rent for life :)

All I know is that I am ready to get settled into a permanent home so I can finally unpack my stuff.  It will be like Christmas and I can not wait!

Aaack!!!!

OHMYGAWDTHEYACCEPTEDOUROFFER!!!

Now comes the harrowing, nerve-wrecking process of financing.  I have sent in a whole crapload, (yes, you read that correctly, C.R.A.P.L.O.A.D.) of paperwork and documentation proving that Rob works where we say he works, makes the money that we say he makes, and owes what we say he owes.

I did however, ask our firstborn if she would be available in the event that the mortgage company wanted our firstborn :)

She declined, but on the bright side, Rob is getting financing on his own and his firstborn is Jules, sooooo...no problem!!

The mortgage co. is shooting for a 3/31/11 closing date!

OHMYGAWDTHISCOULDREALLYHAPPEN!!!

Trying desperately to settle in....

So the house in the last post ended up having major roof issues, so we are not getting that one, we found another in the same neighborhood that we really like and it's in much better shape.  Still needs updating but the major "money" items have been taken care of already. 

Roof new in 2002, vinyl siding 2003, furnace 2007 (lower level heated with radiant heat). All appliances stay (including washer & dryer). Beautiful living room with fireplace opens to balcony deck (recently replaced) overlooking deep and park like backyard. Family room in lower level to is a walk-out with fireplace and sliders opening to rear patio and 3 full baths.

Should hear something in the next 48 hrs.

Keep your fingers crossed :)
