So close...

Our closing got delayed. Sigh.

We had signed to close on March 31st originally. Then, the sellers asked to close on March 26 to allow them to use the funds to close on their new house. We accepted, but didn't sign anything new. We went ahead as if closing was the 26 and set up our insurance this way.

A few days ago I get a call from our REA. He says the sellers thought we were still closing on the 31st. Huh?

Turns out the seller's REA never informed them that we had agreed to this. So they planned their move for the 27 and couldn't close without having vacated first.

We are now closing on the 29. It is just three days, but we lose a weekend in between. Still... we are so close.
