Well, I'll be damned if one of my REO deals isn't closing tomorrow......ON TIME!! Holy shit- somebody pinch me! I didn't think it was possible. Of course, it's not actually closed yet, and I wouldn't be surprised if the house got sold off to another bank tomorrow morning- it could happen. (Wait- actually, it HAS happened - remember the pink house deal???) Or, my buyer could get struck by a random bolt of lightning on his way to the closing. Or, have a heart attack while sitting at the closing table (before signing the docs). It could happen.
I have another one that's supposed to close this coming up Monday (was supposed to close Monday of this week, but you know how that goes).
I got another one under contract Tuesday and sold it to my new California buyer. Yay! We met for dinner yesterday to get the contract signed and to discuss his plans to dominate the Tampa housing market and also to make me filthy rich. Teehee.
Let's see, what else?
Oh- I punched my computer today (really hard), and now it's even more messed up than it was after I spilled wine on the keyboard a few weeks ago. You see, I was trying to get the TWENTY FIVE PAGE offer package for the deal I just got under contract, printed, filled out, and FedExed to Countrywide before 6pm (last FedEx pick up). The first time I printed it out, signed and initialed everything, and then realized I signed in black ink instead of blue (Heaven forbid you sign in black!). So, I reprinted another 25 pages, and then realized I printed the package for the wrong address, and so then when I went to print another 25 pages, my printer ran out of ink and I had to haul ass to Target to get another ink cartridge and then when I went to print for the 4th time, a piece of paper got jammed in the printer, and then my computer just froze up, and I lost my temper and punched the keyboard as hard as I could.
And it felt GOOD, let me tell you.
I suppose I should invest in a punching bag or something, as I think it might be less expensive in the long run.....
And that's all I've got for now.
Dobryj vyechyer!
P.S.
I ended up getting to FedEx on time. Barely.

I have to apologize, you had me laughing with your computer problems.
On another note, I've notice a huge increase in visits to my blog on days where you post to yours...haha. Keep up the posting will ya! hehe
Why would the contracts color of ink make a difference?
All closing docs are done in blue, but I've never encountered anyone caring which color I sign the agreement in.
That just seems stupid to me.
Anyway, well done, Steph.
