God no.  My lease isn't up until Feb 28th.

 

It will probably take me that long to pack and sort through my hoard.

 

Thanks!

 

Happy Holidays!

Updating to include appraisal! Came in tiny bit over contract.  They have also updated our official closing date to 12/30/16! We have a small list of repairs the seller is to get done prior to close.  We are really pushing it! The last day of the year we could possibly close!! Wish me luck!

Purchase Price: $649,000
Signed Contract: 7/9/2016
Location: Farmington Hills, MI
Property Type: New Construction Single family
Type of Loan: Jumbo
Loan Rate: 4.0%
Appraisal: 8/24; $607,000

Cleared to close: 12/15/2016

Our whole process was quite an ordeal. 5/3 bank (who held  our current mortgage for 10 years) was terrible as far as communication throughout the process including taking 2 mos to give us the appraisal which was low while telling us everything was fine during the wait. Caused quite an issue as we were ready to close and didn't realize we were upside down on the appraisal which caused us to write VP's and raise an uproar. We worked it out but not really in our favor. Will be closing our bank accounts with them and will not refer anyone to apply for a mortgage though them.
