Hopefully this won't delay things too much...

(Yes, I'm sneaking some DIS in -- shhh! )

We were supposed to have our final walkthrough on the house today, but they're having to push it to tomorrow instead. They're re-doing the part of the roof that needed to be redone and didn't quite have it finished this morning for our walk-through. I know they weren't far from finishing because I drove by last night and saw what they were doing, but hopefully they'll have it done in time for a walk-through tomorrow morning.

I hope this doesn't push closing too far. On one hand it would be nice if it were pushed to the first week of Sept, but then we pay a *lot* more in taxes (well, compared to the taxes or interest or whatever it is we're paying by closing on Thursday), but we'd have DH's paycheck deposited by then. But, we also wouldn't get the nice 3-day weekend to get things done on the house (like fumigating and putting up some railing around a plant ledge I don't want the cats falling off of) and go shopping for a new couch (since they have all those one year no-payments no-interest financing for Labor Day weekend -- yes, we have to pay it off before the year is up, but we can do that on one couch ).

All in all, I'd rather still close either Thursday or Friday... cross your fingers that having to push the walk-through back a day doesn't push closing too far if at all?

Sending tons of PD that your everything revolving around your closing all works out for the best

Hope it all works out for you!

If you can close on Friday the 30th - you'll pay the least amount of interest. Since your walk-through is one day later, insist that the bank schedule the closing for Friday. Good luck!

Prayers and pd that your closing happens when you want it to. How fun for you to get a new and a new furniture. I love shopping for furnitures. Let us know how the walk-through turns out. I am living my life vicariously through you and Beauty and you get ready to move. I love moving!

That would be the ideal situation

And you just reminded me I need to call our realtor and let her know. Thanks!

Good luck. If you need furniture, the service organization that I am president of is having a garage sale on Sunday. We had some nice furniture.

Thanks for the offer, but unless they take credit cards and have the couch we want and an entertainment center we want, we probly won't find what we need there. We pretty much have everything, just need a couch and maybe a couple of end tables. Everything else we have already
