Sliding into home base!

We spent two hours at the Title Company today, signing, and then RE-signing loan documents! After we were almost completely done (the first hour), we found they had listed the sales price incorrectly on one of the documents. But they were able to quickly email corrected documents over almost right away and we quickly re-signed them all.

Also, no one had contacted the insurance guy - I gave his contact info to escrow at the beginning, and was told that's all I needed to do, but when they sent him a request for the insurance amount today, that was the first he'd heard! So the poor guy was working late tonight - sent out a rep to get photos, called me back and was working late to get all the needed info to escrow by tomorrow morning.

The great thing about living in a small town is that we ~can~ do that - the local insurance agent called me and said she could run over and take the photos this afternoon. People can usually make time to accommodate your needs here. And they do it with a smile, too.

We may close tomorrow after all, or at least Friday, which wouldn't be so bad.

Also, it turns out that included in that large cashier's check was the first year's worth of insurance, the first half-year's worth of property taxes, and payment/interest until April 1st, so that's not as bad as it seemed.

Things are looking up!
