Might be closing late

My loan has been with the senior underwriter most of the month.  It finally came out yesterday but because I am using a state down payment program (GA Dream) it has to go to them now.  I am supposed to close on the 30th but I don't see a possible way that I can make that date.  I just want to close already and start in my new house!  My Realtor told me it was fine because we really have 7 days from that date to close.  This isn't really a question so much as sharing my anxiety with others.  Hope everyone has a great house hunting/buying/loaning day!

Re: Might be closing late

  • Our closing was delayed by a week and half. I HATED the wait. But it'll be worth it at the end.

  • FWIW , your closing date usually isn't guaranteed to close that day. Sometimes underwriting or title can take forever. good luck!

  • I am aware it can change but I was hoping they could get it done in 45 days.
  • I'm sure its frustrating but it sounds like everything is moving along and you'll close soon. Try to stay positive. Things never seem to happen the way we expect.
  • Our closing date was April 15th, we just extended our contract for the second time yesterday, so I feel your pain.  You're not alone! Keep pumping out that positive energy and keep imagining it getting done and it will happen!

    My fingers are crossed for you! Best of luck.

  • We closed about 2 weeks late.  It was really inconvenient, because it meant that we had to move in almost immediately to get out of our expiring lease rental.  But it happens.  It comes with the territory.  There's just too many moving parts with a closing to guarantee it being right on time.  Add the excitement and anxiety of homebuying and it's a real roller coaster.
  • Ugh yes, isn't it just horrible!  I wake up every day an say: please let today be the day!

  • GeorgiaRiah, 

    We also are using the GA Dream to purchase our first home.

    Best wishes on closing on your new home soon.

  • Well I heard today that I definitely won't be closing on Monday.  They have moved me to late Friday.  Cross your fingers and hope that it happens then.


    Thanks!
