Only one more update left after this!! Alot of drama but it came together in the end!!! Clear to close given today and closing is scheduled for tomorrow at 3:00pm!!

 

Best of luck to everyone!!

 


 

 

Sorry for the late update!! Closed on July 2nd, 2014!!!!!! It's finally over!!!! Now the fun begins. So, since we want to paint and put floors down, I decided to ask for an increase on my HD card. Of course it was a hard pull, but well worth it. Credit limit went from $2000 to $8800. I asked for a $6000 increase! Time to go shopping!

 

We decided to also apply for a Rooms to Go card since we want some new furniture. Approved for $8000.00. 

 

A am definately ready to go shopping!!

 

Best of wished to everyone still going through the process!

 

Congrats to everyone who has already  closed!!

All this after I had made an offer on another house that was accepted, but after the inspection it needed too many repairs for me--a new roof among other things, so I cancelled that contract.  This process has been fairly easy, but stressful nonetheless.  I have partial retirement annuity income, partial part-time employment from a school district that cannot be used since I have only been working there one year, and self-employment income for the last 2 1/2 years where I am an independent contractor with another school district.  They have asked for a lot of documentation regarding my self-employment like the last 2 years of income tax returns with all schedules, a year to date profit and loss statement and a balance sheet which I didn't even know what these were until this process,  but so far everything is o.k. I think, but I don't have a name for my business, I just turn in an invoice each month with my name and address and they cut me a check.  Hopefully everything will go smoothly until we close on July 31!

Re: July 2014 Closers

Sounds great!

 

I use waveapps.com for my self-employment. You can print off any reports needed, for free! This came in handy when my first lender, who bombed my first loan, asked for my balance sheet and other docs.
