If I survive this process, it will be a miracle.
A teensy exaggeration in the title. We are currently under contract on our first house. We have passed the pre-approval, the inspection, and are now in the "conditional approval" stage. All they are waiting on is the appraisal (which was last Friday, but they won't have the report back until tomorrow), and a few documents from the seller's agent.
The problem is, the seller's agent is SO lazy. She won't return any of my agent's calls, she hasn't filled out any of the paperwork that we need her to (like FHA addendum and such). She hasn't even filled out her commission paperwork yet! I think part of the reason we are getting such a great deal out of this house is because her pictures of the house online are awful--- only 4 pics, and they are all blurry.
My stomach has been in knots with each wait, and now that we're getting closer to closing, it is only getting worse. Although we did get to schedule our final walk-through today, which was nice! Just a little vent session. Thanks for letter me share.

Oh no!
That sounds awful. I'll send good vibes that you get well!
Oh I know what you mean! You pretty much described our seller's agent except it was also the same for our agent too! I've never worked with more lazy people than them and it felt like I was the one reminding everybody to do something to the point of me feeling like a pest.
It was a nightmare. Our agent left town for a week in the middle of negotiations after the inspection was done. None of our questions were answered at the first try.
I was so stressed that I didn't really sleep for weeks and my face broke out and I had massive headaches.
I am going to try to avoid buying a house ever again. I wanted to die during the process!
But you're getting there! It'll all be worth it at the end, I know it was for us!
This is what I keep repeating to myself! Our lending company actually said to me-- "We tend to over-communicate, and at times, you may not like us, but you will LOVE when we hand you the keys."
