Hi Everyone,
The official closing is today, Thursday @ 12:00.
We will be officially out tomorrow by Friday @ 1:00.
3/4 of the house is ready!!! I've been busy to say the least...This will be one of my final posts for awhile...
Apparently, it's everyone's fault pretty much except for Jake and I. Actually, the buyer is alright too. It seems to be the realtors and lender...
The buyer's realtor is realtor to her. I think they are cousins. It also is the buyer's realtor's first closing...She has NO idea what she is doing and even only came back from vacation last night. She called my realtor to ask what time the closing was because she didn't even know. How stupid is that? This realtor was was VERY PRETTY, but I guess she doesn't have any brains. Hey, you can have both, but she sure as heck doesn't.
The lender forwarded the paperwork to Sophia's old office that she left in November 2006 even though the paperwork specifically gave Sophia's new location. The old office received the paperwork 3 weeks ago and NEVER forwarded it to Sophia's new office.
Sophia tried many times to reach them, but neither the lender or the other realtor ever answered the phone.
THE REASON WHY WE HAVE TO BE OUT...According to the closing papers, there was a clause that NO MATTER WHAT WE AGREED TO BE OUT BY AUGUST 31ST. NO MATTER WHAT. If we said, "The heck with this deal", they would have the right to sue on the basis of breach of contract. Even though Jake and I had NO NOTICE, a judge would rule in the buyer's favor...
The buyer, I learned yesterday, actually has a company coming to the house Saturday already to do something!!!
I do blame Sophia somewhat but not a lot...Jake wants to kill her!!! I believe she tried...but no one ever called her back...Maybe it's just me. I forgive to easily.
Sophia feels terrible. She has arranged the U-Haul (will pay for it) and found movers that she knows, personally, that will only charge us $600.00 instead of $1,500.00. She is TRYING to make things right. She called many companies yesterday for us.
Also, we have the closing today. After that, she is going to help my load her SUV and take as many boxes as possible to my parent's house. She also has offered to stay and help pack more. She is TRYING. I don't have much help from Jake because it is the end of the month. He CAN'T get off. Tomorrow, he can go into work after we move. So I only have him for a few hours to help with the big stuff. My Mom came last night, after work, and helped me pack up a lot. I couldn't thank her enough. I had done lots of packing, but the whole things seemed endless...
She will help me tonight too after work, if needed. I don't know how much I'll get done today with having to run to the closing. Also, the buyer comes today to do a "last run" to make sure nothing was ruined or anything. This will be my first time meeting her.
Sophia has been a realtor for over 30 years. She has apolized up and down and said how she never saw any closing this screwed up. She couldn't say "sorry" enough. We are "friends" too.
The buyer's realtor is going to be in BIG SH*T. She won't lose her license but may lose her job! I hope she had a great vacation! It might be her last for awhile...
At least, the situation has a solution.
I can't wait to move back with my parents and find the home of me dreams with Jake. Once we move into that home, we can start the pregnancy stuff. ONE THING I AM SOOOO THANKFUL FOR NOW IS MY HEATLH. Thank God, I have it! I couldn't do all this if I didn't.
Jake is as sick as a dog too. He has a massive sore throat, clogged ears, and feels like crap. I'm praying I don't get it. The odds are NOT in my favor.
As a matter of fact, I was almost afraid to what I would wake up to this morning. Thankfully, I still alright. Jake has been sick since Tuesday. Even from exercising yesterday and wanting to throw up the whole day due to nerves, I'm still okay. I actually woke up better than expected.
To all interested...I'm still spotting that pinkish/brown crap, and my boobs are sore today. My period is due Saturday so we'll see. Honestly, my hopes aren't to into it, though...
<i><u><b>ANYWAY, thank you to all of you!!! I couldn't have asked for better friends. You girls have always been so nice to me and supported me no matter what, even when I probably drive you nuts sometimes. All of you are great!!! I promise to be in touch when things calm down. It' probably won't be until I'm in the new house not my parent's house. So it could be 2 months...I will miss having you girls to talk to, but I know that you'll be with me! Thank you so very much!</b></u></i>
