      You got this, just don’t make any huge purchases like buy a car. You should be able to buy groceries. If you’re concerned about it, just ask your lender what your debt to income is and cash to close and if they have any concerns.

    My closing day was very interesting. Seller was so late because she waited til the last minute to get everything out of my house, had plenty of time to pay wire everything an even read a few documents, an recall all the credits (money) she promised for the repairs needed. There is an advantage to dealing with unorganized people.

I'm moving from California to Georgia, first time home buyer, all by myself and it's been crazy. My finances are all great but so much paperwork, good grief!!! And I haven't even closed yet! I was only expecting a bunch of paperwork at the closing but I've already read and signed a whole heap of stuff. I'm sick to death of it, lol!! I'm flying down to sign in person too and a week before, flying down for the walk through so lots of air miles to be used later. I was actually looking online to see if I could find the closing documents ahead of time to read because I want to read everything. Hoping there was like a general pile of documents that all buyers have to sign with verbiage every pack has so I could read it ahead of time and then just sign when I get there, They should have that, lol! Oh well, I'll just take extra b-vitamins or something for that day,

    My closing day was bittersweet because my lender told me just 72 hours beforehand that I would have to maintain my $80k income in order to be given a conditional approval, because I didn't know where I would be working once I moved in. So I kept my income for the next year to pay off the house and then moved in. Then I found you while searching for the reason why they didn't tell me that 3 months earlier when I applied.
