Just when we thought there was no way we were going to pull off everything required to close by 5pm on January 29th -- we found out that both banks approved the revised documents and would be wiring the funds first thing Friday (1/29) morning.  The funds arrived by 11am and Title recorded at the County Records Office by 3pm.  And we became home owners!!!  There was still one last obstacle between us and the keys and that is that the previous owners still had quite a bit of their stuff in the garage and front room of the house.  They cleared everything out by noon on the 30th and we took official ownership!  Lee took pictures of the house so we would have "Before" and "After" pictures.  We have a long list of projects in front of us.  But -- for those of you that wonder what it looked like when we got keys.....  Check out the pics in our gallery.
