another extension........... Sign In/Join

Not sure if this will ever end. Got another extension today from our buyers. Not their fault! After my husband got the loan several years ago, the bank changed it from residential to commercial without telling anyone, so now the buyers have to get a commercial loan. New close date is January 18th!
Presenting this to our sellers in Colorado tomorrow and hopeful they will agree to it, if not I have NO idea what we will do...........

We had somewhat of a similar situation once....I know this is hard to swallow....but first priority is SELLING your property.....if the sellers of the house you're interested in buying won't accept it, oh well. You've been trying so hard for so long to sell this property....get it sold and if you have to start over in CO, then so be it. Sorry you're going through this but seriously....don't lose this buyer.

Just my honest opinion.

Sorry to hear this, Nancy, but, as you say, it's not the fault of the buyers and hopefully January 18th will be the magic date! Fingers crossed that it does close then AND that the sellers in CO will be cooperative ~ keep us up-dated! Cool

When I saw the title of the post I immediately thought "oh,NO. Not Nancy!" Was hoping no news meant you were busy moving.

The buyers are still hanging in there. That is good news. It is hard not to be anxious but please try to take it easy. It will all work out.

Yes, stick it out with the buyers even if Colorado doesn't work out, but I think if the situation was explained well...your sellers there will go for it..understanding completely!! Even would be good if you got a letter from the lender (which is also your lender right?) explaining.
Proof in the pudding!

Sellers signed the extension and we got a copy of the email from the lender saying he can make this work. Of course that is not the same as having contingencies removed, but it helps.
Seems like things are moving forward, but after all this am feeling pretty cautious!
Hope all of you have a WONDERFUL Christmas!!!

Well that is great, Nancy. It's okay to feel cautious. Sounds like you are handling this quite perfectly. Cheers to all the Realtors involved too...
sounds like a good team in both states.

So someday I am going to come on here and tell you we have closed. It is not going to be today.
The loan committee was to meet today and confirm the loan and remove the contingency and close next Friday. Just got word the committee is now meeting on Monday.
Have no idea what to think and we are both sick from stress.

Awe try to relax and not stress out..could be something as simple as someone was out sick. Just keep thinking positively and moving forward.

Don't end up in the ER like I did...I wasn't able to finish packing up the house and hubby had to do it and he also had to direct all the movers...I wasn't sure I'd make it to closing, but I did.

I know what you are going through...please take care...hugs

Sitting with IR waiting to hear, too. Everything is crossed.

I want to know about the new home purchase, too. Not that I'm nosey or anything.

Maybe she hasn't hooked up her computer since the move? At least I hope it is good news of some sort.

So, Nancy, what's happening? You know we have your back regardless. Did the closing occur or are you back to square one? Good thoughts being sent your way.... Cool

My third eye tells me they closed and are getting settled in their new house. They went through their current lender who is very familiar with the property.

She will pop on her when we least expect it. Watch.
