All that's left is to pick up the keys

Yesterday morning we went to the title company to do all of the paperwork for the condo purchase. I'm still not entirely clear on the whole process, but basically we signed a ton of disclosures and the loan documents, and the whole lot got notarised.

I found the thumbprint requirement rather amusing.

So the loan should fund today, and the title change will register with the county on Wednesday, and by tomorrow afternoon, we should have the keys.

We then had to do a walk through to sign off that the property hadn't turned into a pumpkin since we put the offer in. It was only the second time I've been able to see the place, so it was good to take another look. Sarah's been doing lots of running around to organise quotes for the kitchen renovation and measure the windows for curtains, so she's seen it many more times.

There's going to be a few little odd jobs that need doing around the place. There's a few lights that aren't working (presumably just bulb replacements. There's an outside cupboard that's falling apart. There's a little water feature that I think we'll just get rid of, as the pump is a waste of electricity and it'll just breed mosquitoes otherwise. It's going to be home.
