Why I Hate the Bank

Posted by Kris under Personal Rant

So, my wife and I our trying to buy our first house and as I mentioned in a previous post we found the house we wanted, made an offer that was accepted and then went on to the mortgage phase.  We have great credit no problem there.  We were approved for our financing and it moved on to the underwriters.  Now because we are first time home owners we qualify for a special mortgage from the state.  Sounded great, but here we are supposed to close on this coming Tuesday and the state has come in with a laundry list of things they want done.  All stupid things mind you like they want the old windows to be rehung with new rope for the weights and reglazed.  Needless to say no one does that anymore and its only a few of the windows in the house that are still the old wood windows.  They want us to regrade the yard … its November in West Virginia not really a good time to be putting dirt out.  All of it is just stupid things like that, things that are not doable this time of year.  So we are trying a few things and hopefully will still be able to close on Tuesday … but I doubt it.
