Closing date Changed!

Our closing countdown has been reset for Tuesday, January 29th! WHY you ask. Well, first let me say that I have refrained from blogging anything about our lender because that was the less exciting part of the Home building experience.  There are so many elements to the financing that you MUST be sure that your finance company is communicating with everyone that they need to be communicating with.  And if you do not go with NVR for your financing there's even more "room for error".  Since we found our financing before we discovered Ryan Homes we decided to stick with them since we were established with them.  There are so many lines of communication when it comes to buying a house that you hand paperwork to one person and and it goes through who knows how many people before it gets to a person who looks at it, files it, and send the OK back down the pipeline.  Our delay came with the appraiser.  On the day that we had our final walk through there was a well dress man in a suit with a clipboard walking through our kitchen.  It was the appraiser doing his final walk through also.  The only problem was that his paper work had not gone to our lender until the day before closing at about 2pm which did not give our lender sufficient time to send it through their rigmarole. The result?  No closing until Tuesday.  Now we have to change from a weekend move to a weekday move which will save us money on the moving company.  YEAH more money in our pockets!  We're still really excited and will be just as excited to close on Tuesday as we would've been today.

  1. That sucks that you got pushed back over the appraisal, but it's cool that you'll save some money on the move! Every little bit of money helps when you are buying a house.

  2. This does SUCK!! I know this feeling because it happened to us! Urggghh!! But the blessing is the show will go ON! It's better to know that it's just a simple delay. I have a girlfriend who was supposed to close in June with Richmond Homes--it's now January and she still hasn't closed. The lack of communication is across the board not just NVR.

    I am just happy you all don't have to wait much longer. We settled on a Tuesday too.

    btw--what yall plan on buying with that extra money. It's so much stuff to purchase. :-)
