So bummer! Bryan talked to the bank tonight and they are so busy with mortages that they won't be able to close our loan in time for our set closing date with the sellers (May 7). They are saying they can close it by May 28. That's an extra three weeks.
The downside of that is that the sellers can back out of the offer if they don't like this change in plans. And that we were really looking forward to getting out of here sooner than later. But as long as the sellers hang in with us, we can be patient and wait three weeks longer.
The upside is that it makes getting Caleb to and from school a little easier for three more weeks. We're moving out of this school's area, so we have to drive him to and fro every day once we move. We don't mind, of course. It's way too late in the school year to make him change schools. It's going to be hard enough for him, we don't want to make it worse!
So right now we are praying that the couple who is selling the house sticks with the offer and agrees to the new date. We don't want to lose the house because the bank couldn't get their ct together in time!
