Closing Date

We received official word from Ryan Homes that our closing will be July 28th. While we are glad to have a date, and feel as though we are moving forward, we were a bit disappointed to hear it will be end of July. All along we were told middle of July was a 'conservative' estimate of when we would close. We asked frequently if that was still a realistic target as a 'conservative' estimate and were told yes all along the way. The phrase our PM liked to use was, "I want to under promise and over deliver." Sounds great!! We'd like that too....and it turned out not to be the case. Really the only issue, besides the desire to get into our new home, is that we rented an apartment until the middle of July figuring we'd be covered. Thankfully our apartment had not been re-rented and we were able to extend for a few weeks to cover us until after closing.

Now we just have to keep our fingers crossed that it doesn't get pushed back any further than that. From reading blogs I've seen many accounts of dates being pushed back numerous times. Hopefully we can avoid all of that! At least we won't be homeless for those few extra weeks!
