If it wasn't one thing, it's another...

Well, closing has been…tumultuous to say the least.  First we had issues with my student loans.  They said I could do one thing and ended up not telling me everything I needed to do to get it done.  Once we thought we got that settled, we thought we were in the clear.  Um, yeah, we were wrong.  The appraiser didn’t do his job and stopped responding

UGH! What a mess! But I'm glad you're getting it all under control, or in as much control as possible.

It is so damn annoying when people don't do their jobs. I am so envious of you buying a townhouse! I hope to be able to move out within the next two years, pending how long school will take and if I can go to classes and work the same schedule I am now... which probably isn't likely, but we'll see.

((((HUGS))))

*squeeze* Thanks. It's been a very eye-opening experience. When I got pre-qualified in January, I didn't thinnk we'd be running into the problems I've had. Goes to show that you need to get pre-approved so you know what you're getting yourself into.

Hopefully you'll be able to join the "homeowner's club" soon. You may be able to move much sooner than you think. I'm only paying about $20/more a month buying than renting. Also, there are a lot of different first time homebuyer options available. It's because of those that I'm able to buy w/very little out of my pocket.
