Change of Plans

This whole home buying experience has turned into a huge nightmare. It was just one thing after another going wrong. We have been dragged through the mud and back and have jumped through many hoops getting the lender all the information they wanted and then when that wasn't enough we did more. It has been pretty much out of our hands and in the hands of the title company. They have had a MONTH and still haven't found the people they need to sign off so that they can clear the title. Obviously, if the title isn't clear, we can't go forward and they still haven't shown us that they are even capable of clearing it. So after much debate, stress, prayers and careful consideration we decided to give them 24 hours to perform or cancel escrow. That was last thursday night. Friday the title company said they would drive to the people and have them sign it and have it done by Monday so we gave them until Monday and still nothing....Today they hadn't even found the people yet, let alone finished the paperwork so it could be submitted to the lender. We told the mortgage broker and the real estate broker that we wanted to back out and cancel escrow. Hopefully the seller will sign the paper quickly so we can get our $2000 back ASAP. We searched for apartments on line and looked at some where Josh's friends live. We liked a few of them but narrowed it down to 2 and finally decided on an apartment in upland. It is in a new community that is "luxury apartments" it is like a resort. There is an amazing property with great landscaping and a huge pool and spa, a big fitness center, and a club house with a gourmet kitchen and a theater room available. We are bummed that we spent all this time and effort on the house just to find out it wasn't going to work but we know that it wasn't meant to be. We did everything in our power and it just didn't happen so we feel comfortable knowing that it was just not supposed to be. Thank you all for you love, support, and prayers on our behalf. We still have a guest bedroom available when yall want to come visit! We would love to have you.

Love,

Sara and Josh
