The sellers STILL didn't sign the contract yet they want to close by Sept. 23. In the meantime we found an AWESOME apartment, which we were suppossed to decide on last week. We have to let the apartment know if we are taking it by tomorrow. We decided to give the sellers an ultimatum - if they don't sign the contracts today then we are walking away from the deal. They dragged things out long enough... who takes 3 weeks to sing a contract and then wants to close 2 weeks later? I don't want to lose this apartment and be stuck living with my FIL's if something goes wrong with the house. Enough has gone wrong already. Then we will start looking for a new house in the Spring. So either way I will know where I'm living today!

Re: Update on House saga
Julz, it is so unfortunate that these people are bringing you through the ringer...You have to do what is best for Ray & you...I would give them one last chance to sign, if not, it is their loss & you move on...I am sure you will find something in the spring with less the hassle...With the apartment, you can rest easy til house hunting comes again!
Hang in there

Re: Update on House saga
What the F are wrong with these people...call them yourselves and ask what the problem is???? Tell them closing on the 23rd is not an option....it's not good for you! Tell them we could have done it had you signed the contract a week ago!! HELLOOOOO!
I can't wait to hear which you go with and see pictures!!!

Re: Update on House saga
Something sounds very fishy with these Sellers. I don't know what it is but it makes me nervous. I say go for the apartment if they don't sign by midday today. You will be less stressed, and, if you found one house, there will be others!

Re: Update on House saga
Good luck! It may be a blessing--if they were this much of a pain throughout the whole process you would have your hands full! And you don't want to be living with the FILs!!!!!!!!!

I wouldn't be surprised if they found another buyer that offered more and they are just jerking you around at this point.

Re: Update on House saga
Good for you!!! Good luck no matter what you choose! It took our sellers over a month to sign the contract but they didnt want to close 2 months! I cant imagine how they expect all this to work out when they are stalling!!!

I agree I would go with the apartment!!! You don't want to rush into someone else's problem!!! I would wait and find something else!!

Re: Update on House saga
The apartment is near boulder creek steakhouse in smithtown.
My FH has been got 3 voicemails from the homeowner.. they are going to sign the contract 'Tomorrow or the next day'
We are going to see 2 other houses tonight.
We will talk to the apartment people later. They know the whole story (what is going on with the house). We'll see how it goes tonight.
