I need a lil bit of luck here...The Condo Ordeal will soon come to an End...I HOPE!

For the past 5 months there has been a thorn in my side because early July I decided to buy my own condo. From DAY 1 it has been a complete and utter disaster. In the last minute of my first attempt to get a mortgage they denied me the loan in the last minute because they couldn't find a home sale in my area of 10% down to compare my place to. THEN the mortgage people decided they weren't going to answer their phones for me for a week or 3. Or answer an email. I got a new mortgage & then the man that was supposed to say "Your Approved" would not answer his phone or email for a week so my future plans sat on a desk for a while...then some more time went by. I've had enough.

After calling the President of Bank of America, yes my mortgage problem is because Bank of America mortgage department in NY is run by complete idiots, we finally got everybody on the phone & this all gotstraightened out. There was no excuse for this taking 5 months to clear when I have a great credit score & have given them EVERY bit of information they needed either that day or the next.

By the end of this week I will get the "Approval" statement & I can finally yes FINALLY get a closing date & move into my new place. I have sooo much stuff that I can't wait to put in my new place. I want to hang up my pale yellow shower curtain, finally have a queen size bed, use my crock pot I stood in line on Black Friday for, & actually be living in my own place.


Now...I need a lil bit of luck that this time when they say it will be resolved by the end of this week that its the TRUTH. *knock on wood* I want to decorate my place for Christmas. I want to finally be able to be happy about this life choice. I want to take that next step in adulthood.

I'll find out more info this week but I'm keeping my fingers crossed, wishing on stars, waiting for 11:11 to get an extra wish in there, & hoping...hoping for it all...Wish Me Luck!!!

ahhh the stress of owning property! - welcome to the club! ... fun part is DEF the decor - not so fun stuff - when over the years you buy things thinking it'll be perfect, to move in, find them, and say, WOW that was a waste of money ... yea true story - sucks ..

HAVE FUN DECORATING NOW!!!!

I know how frustrating it can be -believe me I've been there too. Good luck! Hope it all works out! If not, I recommend trying for an FHA loan which requires less than 5% down.
