eat a little something - cereal or bread or a couple of crackers
start learning who the good handymen/small contractors are! and get some good DYI books - so much stuff you can do yourself if you aren't afraid to try

14. I'm a real estate lawyer. |

I know how you're feeling today.
Rest assured, you're not signing your life away.
Just your money.

How did it go? Is the house that you posted the pics of? I love that house!
I hope you'll be able to sleep easier tonight. I know you won't be sorry! Home ownership is a wonderful thing.

this was the notary closing. The final closing should take place in 120 days. and I had to sign some kind of paper about the right of way ... shit. I forget what it is called and I don't have a copy of that paper. Anyway, it is because my road is not a deeded a right of way.
They will break ground next week. I still have to finish tearing down the outbuilding where the house is going. My brother and I have been working on that every weekend for a month now. We only have the flooring left and we will get that moved this weekend.
I will post pics when I have broken ground.

just when I think I have it all wrapped up.
Hopefully, it will not take the full 4 months *fingers crossed* because I really will be a nervous wreck by then :)
thanks :toast:

if it weren't such a life changing event, and so worth it to have your own space. Soon you will be able to look around you and relax.
Wishing you happiness in your new home. :hug:

28. It's always scary at closing |
|
We have bought 2 houses. Both times my hands were so cramped up I could barely grab the keys, after all the "sign here, and here and here, initial here and here and date and initial here and here ha.
Its a good feeling after tho.
