I have recently purchased a home. Everyone told me closing never goes smoothly. Boy are they right!! First I get a call saying that the seller needs more time to get moved out, so i gave an extra 3 1/2 hours and also the walk through got changed at that time to since we knew she was not going to be out. I get to the house to do the walk through and she is still packing. I am totally freaked out that I will not be able to close on the house. We go through the house all checks out OK. The seller at this point has about 1/2 to have everything packed and out. I had a few issues come up and I ended up having some of the sellers stuff in the garage, which she came to pick up the following Monday. So right now I am in the process of painting and getting everything cleaned so I can finally move in. Only a few issues have come up since the closing. I had issues with the dishwasher already and painting the cabinets is not fun. I will be replacing them in the future, they happen to be the original cabinets and the house was built is 1980, so I cannot complain to much. Other than that I painted my bathroom purple, I will have an accent wall in my living room that will be a deep red (I hope), and then my kitchen will be an orange, rust color. I will have to put up pictures so everyone can see the awesome colors. Check back for more updates on the house and see what else I can get my hands on to do other than paint and work.
