Closing Time!!

[Bobb_o]

You all were right I emailed today and surprise surprise *** send me the closing documents a few hours later. I should have asked a week ago.

Edit: Has anyone used multiple money orders to pay? I just realized it'll be cheaper than a wire transfer.

I ordered a cashier's check but it was $15 to not have arrive in 7-10 business days. It would have been about been about $10 for 14 money orders.

Crazy thing is *** wants you to pay $20 to cover their wire acceptance fee.

Oh wow, we're working with *** for our 2nd contract.... I was planning on doing a wire when the time came but this is just ridiculous

This is actually a fairly common practice in the title industry. They are just a middle man so if anyone else should cover it besides the buyer it would make sense to be the seller.

Points in my account:
* The points were not there mid day. I called and chose option 2, but ended up w/ a non administration CM, who told me that when adm. is busy the calls go to regular member services, she checked w/ adm. and told me the new contract would be loaded by tomorrow.
I checked online again at 6 pm my time (9 pm eastern) and none of my contracts were showing. Checked just now (10 pm eastern) and my old contracts were back on the site joined by their new baby brother contract the new contract’s points aren’t loaded yet, tho’.

Yaaay glad you're sorted @sndral Welcome home neighbour

We were lucky to have Mason Title company... Because we're in the UK I thought the exchange rate might differ between wiring and receipt so asked how much I should add to the wired funds to cover it and any fees they incurred. They said there shouldn't be any; I sent the correct amount, but when it arrived it was short $25.00. As a courtesy, Mason Title covered the $25 shortage. Big thumbs up for them
