ugh ...

so we met with our real estate attorney this am to sign all of our disclosures and contract info to purchase our condo... come to find out that not only will be owe about 20k at closing ... there was also a fee of 8k for a 'premium lot' never disclosed to us. We also expected a 7,500 rebate at the time of closing which would dramatically lower our closing costs (from 20k - 13k) and that wasnt in the contract either. SO now we have to play the waiting game, for the lawyer to contact everyone and get everything straightened out...

just suckss, its such an arduous process - i hope it all works out, i felt my blood pressure and anxiety level rising, sitting there in the lawyer's office as he listed off item after item that we would have to pay off at closing

im hoping it all works out, and we can get all of the contracts figured out and signed away sooooon

update :: so my lawyer just called and apparently they 'lot premium' was just for book keeping purposes and it wasnt something that we needed to pay! Also, they are going to include 7,500 towards our closing costs - he is editing the contract and submitting it! Looks like everything is a go!!! phew
