lillian13 Yesterday morning I met Kay the Realtor at THE HOUSE to do a walk-through before the closing. I met one of the owners, and I joked that I'd actually bought the workshop with an attached house. Her response? "That's one of the reasons we sold it to you." (!)
Upon further contemplation, I can live with the red kitchen, though I still want to repaint the dining area. On my list: get window(s) installed in garage, screen door on garage, storm door on back door, possibly seal the workshop floor, replace vent fans in master bath. I'd love to replace the carpet in the last two rooms, but that's probably out of my price range right now. :-(
Then I went and Signed All The Papers. Both Kay and my Awesome Loan Agent were there to hold my hand. Kay gave me this awesome binder with all sorts of pockets for everything. Then she took me out to lunch. :-)
About 3:00, I get a call from the title company. They caught a mistake at the seller's closing. I owed more money. :-( Not a HUGE amount, but still, a chunk.
I should be getting a key and a check for my rent today. (The sellers are paying my apartment rent in October as part of their one month leaseback.)
