CRAP!

BTW, I moved all of my accounts from B of A in October.

Shouldn't the condo association have a master policy to handle this?

Yes, and I believe they do. In fact, the coverage that I got for my condo covers my part of any repairs that aren't completely covered by the condo association. I think they're looking for excuses to not loan money. Apparently they're not doing so well right now financially. If they really go through with this they'll be losing my business. It's not much, but they won't have my money to waste.

Just talked to a realtive who's a real estate lawyer, and she has never heard of anything like this happening. A strange sign of the times, I guess.

That sucks so bad. Sorry man. I wish you could sue them for your lost money and time, but it probably wouldn't be worth the pain in the ass.

Vibes Request

Post by Miles » April 23rd, 2009, 1:42 am

Ugh, but tomorrow is hell day. I am flying my cats to my parent's house in Charlotte before I move back next month. The cats and I have a nine hour trip (loooong layover in Atlanta) not including the ride downtown through traffic. To make the day even more unbearable, I'll be worrying about my cats the entire flight. Poor Septimus and Allegra have to fly below with the cargo because I just couldn't afford to fly them both in the cabin. At least they'll be flying together in the same carrier so they'll have some company. But still, I feel like a horrible father. :((

Wish me luck. See ya'll Monday when I get back.

I do hope your cats will do fine on the flight. Please let us know. Our pets are so important to us. We are going to Fl. Wed. and I have almost decided if our grandson can't stay at our house with Harley (5 mo. old), I'm not sure I'm going. I would consider boarding him at a place that has a doggie day care.

Good luck on the trip!

Katie, Spencer, Moneypenny and I are all sending vibes to you, Septimus, and Allegra for a safe and pleasant trip. If I had to fly my kitties in cargo I'd be feeling as bad as you are. Please let us know how things go.

We made it to Atlanta and I suppose the cats are cool. Strangely enough, once we got into the airport they calmed down. Hope the flight wasn't too rough. One three hour layover, one flight, and one more 30 min drive to go. Thanks for the vibes everyone.

The Continuing Saga

Post by ArkieDukie » April 23rd, 2009, 8:25 pm

Okay, this continues to be a major headache. My realtor got the condo association to send a statement showing the amount of money in reserve. In fact, it shows that there's more than enough money in reserve. The underwriters still balked, but it's being appealed to someone above them. That happens at 8:00 am CDT. My closing is at 9:00 CDT. So, I'm still scheduled to show up and close tomorrow morning, and we may or may not have money from the bank at that time. I have a cashier's check ready to go but won't hand it over unless/until the bank's money is there. Had to postpone appliance delivery until Monday. I'm getting more gray hairs even as I type.
