Closing Time!

[karen4546]

Quick question ( I emailed title company last night) my husband accidentally got a cashier’s check made out for $30 more than our balance due. I notified the title company but I don’t expect a reply until Monday and I wanted to get this sent off Monday morning.

We paid the deposit with a debit card. Balance due was $16267 and he mistakenly told the bank $16,297.

Should we just take the check back and have them issue a new check? Or if we send the current check will it cause a delay in closing?

We paid our balance while the title company was correcting the closing amount. We overpaid by more than that and they told me they would send a check. It didn't cause any problems. So you shouldn't worry about it, other than to tell the title company like you've done

Woohoo at last!

Right?! I should be celebrating but at this point I’m exhausted from it.
But nothing can stop my adonitis.

After the deed was recorded I discovered a mistake in the document regarding the name of the notary (on the seller side), but it was quickly corrected. The process with agent, closing company and sellers has been enjoyable and easy.

My animal kingdom contract got deeded on the 3rd and every day I check my email every minute until my eyes bleed.
