Week 1 - The Closing and The Reality

We closed on the house about 2 weeks ago after a wild toad ride through the dark and frightening world of short sales, banks and mortgage. Needless to say, our experience affirms to me why the American banking system is still a mess and why lots of people are continuing to get hurt by these institutions.  Ok my rant is over.  We take possession of the house with the owners not quite moved out.  Ok we are not happy but go with the flow (soon to be our motto - ok, just chill and go with the flow.)


The house does have charm (albeit it was and still is hidden under a lot of dirt, neglect and stuff).  The topping on the cake was the text I received from the now former owners letting me know , BY THE WAY, that neither the refrigerator or stove is working........one of many soon to discover 'non working' items.
