Today we got word that our house purchase is ready to close, and we settled on Friday afternoon to sign the papers and collect the keys. There were a few snags and delays en route which have kept us waiting for two months, and now we are anxious to get moved in to our big pink house!
Coincidentally, I heard from the people who are buying my five acres in Georgetown (with tumbledown farmhouse) today too. They scheduled that closing for February 5. I am selling at a loss, but given the real estate market am happy to have lined up a buyer so easily. These are the farmers who own the land on two sides of my plot on Gardner Road. I am selling to them directly, without a realtor to pay, so that makes the deal a little better. And I look forward to paying down some of the new mortgage debt with the Gardner Road proceeds.
