After months of trying to buy a house I am finally cleared to close. Hopefully that will happen tomorrow. This has been one of those disastrous processes in which anything that could go wrong did. We had title issues, we had encroachment issues, there are permitting issues, a lot of work needs to be done before I can get a certificate of occupancy, somebody ripped out a bunch of copper, etc. etc. etc. This national mortgage crisis has made the whole process harded since 30310 is wrought with mortgage fraud and foreclosure - few lenders are willing to finance the project.

As soon as I close I’ll start a new blog category documenting the house transformation. Wish me luck.
