[Comments: 0] 3:13 AM - really-really-moving-soon

My attorney finally confirmed with the developer that the fifth floor is ready to close and scheduled my closing tentatively for January 30th at 2 PM. In order to speed this up, I checked in with my mortgage consultant and confirmed that there would be no problem with moving up the closing to the 25th instead.

I have a walk through scheduled for Monday morning at 11 AM in which I will be able to inspect the unit and confirm it meets the requirements and specifications of what I am purchasing. If everything proves to be in good order, I will aim to proceed with the closing on the 25th as planned with a likely attempt to move in on Saturday.

This could really, really mean I'm moving into my own (owned) home in a week! I am so excited and nervous at this point that I'm going to probably have a fairly restless week.

I just started making final preparations, including transferring money needed to bring to the closing, as well as getting together insurance, and I will have to schedule TV and Internet hookups soon.

I've been waiting 4 to 6 months for this all to finally come together and it seems at this time it's really happening. If you might read this and be around on Saturday and want to help me move my stuff, let me know. :)

Time to own something that costs more than I make in a year! Yay! :)
