It's The Final Countdown...

Today was the final walk-through of the apartment before the closing tomorrow afternoon.

The apartment looks so much bigger empty and de-cluttered! And you can totally see what needs to be done. Definitely need a new kitchen which has to be done immediately. The bathroom needs to go too! A lot of the electrical work done in the apartment looks crappy. People can be so cheap!

I still can't believe tomorrow is the closing. I'm nervous! But excited and ready for this next amazing journey. I'll let you know when the magic finally happens tomorrow!

Wish me luck!

Closing Date is Set...

After months and months in contract, limbo, confusion, etc...

I finally have a closing date! 

Tuesday, January 29, 2013.

I still have to do a final walk through, get a bunch of papers in order and go to the bank a few times and get Cher knows how many bank checks. Let's hope this goes smoothly. I'll keep you posted!

Wish me luck!

Clear to Close...

You would think by now that I would have closed on my apartment and that we'd be discussing what kind of appliances I'd be getting and what kind of tiles I should choose....but no.

I am still waiting to close! Who knew there were so many requirements and loopholes?! Not to mention the snail pace the bank moves. THEY TAKE FOR EVER!

Well, I JUST received my clear to close (mind you, it was cleared on 12/27 but I am just hearing now that it was cleared...that's another story...). Now I think we have to set an actual date to close and transfer all types of monies. I hope this doesn't take too long. I want my apartment already!!!!!

Wish me luck!
