The plan was to sign the papers tomorrow and the closing would record on Monday (28th). When I talked to the title company today they said, "well maybe you'll be able to sign...." Turns out our mortgage company hasn't gotten the paperwork to the title company on time....We finally got word the papers will be to our title company sometime tomorrow so we can sign on Friday. This will give us a close date of Monday, but now likely not getting the keys until the evening. The movers are scheduled for first thing Tuesday morning.
On a plus note, we did a final walk through. The staircase railing was fixed and the hose bibb will be fixed on Friday. The homeowners kept all the paper work (including the original folder of documents detailing all subs who worked on the house). They showed us how to work things, including the sprinklers, oven (it took the house inspector a bit to figure out how to pop out the buttons), where the water shutoff is, and to change the filter in the fridge, etc. They are leaving us a rug (it covers up a faded spot on the hardwood anyway) and a warranty/service contract for the furnace and heat pump. Since they are not moving into a new house right away (it's being built), they cannot take it with them nor get their money back. Bonus for us! They'll come in the Fall and set things up for us, change the filter (a special one for high dust filtration -- changed 1x year), and check out of the system.
Still feeling a bit reserved and trying to not get too excited yet. I think it will finally seem real once we get the keys. Then I can relax a bit....
