Re: Being An Adult Means
*hugs for steph* I hope it all goes smoothly.
As frustrating as it has been buying our first house (we finally close this Friday!), I can't imagine having to deal with getting a buyer and seller at the same time.
I really, really hope this is my last move.

Re: How about that weather, then, eh?
That's so weird, steph!

Re: How about that weather, then, eh?
You might feel differently if you were doing a lot of travelling and your local airport(s) freaked out and closed down during snow storms. (Also, I was just in southwest Florida, where it is sunny and beautiful. Coming home to this -- after many weather delays -- was not cool.) Also, I lied: 18.5 in...

Re: Things that I hate
There are other rules that apply to all deposits over a certain dollar amount and separate rules that apply if the deposit is made in cash, regardless of whether or not you're getting a loan. But there are special rules in addition to those that apply to mortgage lenders within a certain number of d...

Re: Things that I hate
Mortgage lenders are required to track withdrawals and deposits for loan applicants, supposedly to help the feds crack down on money laundering. Most of these rules only apply when the banks are lending money, so they don't have a reason to care the rest of the time. It makes sense for a lender to t...

I don't think anyone would have said anything to him over that transfer if it weren't for the fact that he's trying to close on a house. Nailed it. It's only because we're in the middle of closing.

Despite the fact that the bank assured us -- not once but three separate times -- that my changing jobs would not affect our closing date, our closing date has to be pushed back another 10 days. Why? Because I changed jobs. Seriously? This is why I asked you THREE FREAKING TIMES. Because if it was g...

For the record: I do not recommend working two full-time jobs in the middle of trying to close on a house. Or changing jobs in the middle of closing. So, so many headaches.
