We closed. We saved $190 somehow too so we came out further ahead than we thought.

I had intended to go get paint picked out last night but H was feeling bad, so I packed up 4 boxes of crap from the kitchen instead (WHY do we have 2 sets of wine glasses? We don't even DRINK wine!) and now I have to go immediately after work and pick out paint colors so that my FIL can buy the paint and get to work on painting the entire house so the floors can get redone AND THEN we can move in.

We also talked to our lender while we were waiting on getting our paperwork back and we may end up refinancing our first house to a 15 year FHA non-owner occupied loan (I think that's what he said) so that we are getting the principle down on it and we can try again selling it eventually. It's looking more like our friend is coming home from California (which I hate because it means he didn't get a job in his field), so if that happens HE will rent it (and yeah, MIL approval has already been had :

Congratulations!! We were $1500 under our GFE when we closed, since it was the end of the month (tax credits + prorations, prepaid interest, etc are way lower depending on timing).

I can't wait to see pics. Hope you get to move quickly.
