Stay on their ass about the closing stuff. Banks will drag their feet if you let them. | Also hire your own inspector. Ask around, and don't just go with the first company your realtor suggests. | |
Make sure if you are going to escrow property taxes and insurance ALL the final paperwork indicates that. During my last refinance, one document said I was going to escrow but the controlling document that had my final monthly mortgage payment didn’t actually reflect it.
Primate is spot on with the inspection. You’d rather find too much than too little.
Happy to answer any more specific questions you may have along the way. |
Had this happen on a previous house. We had never escrowed before and decided to do it on that house. Talked about it with them every step.of the way. A couple months after we closed, we get a letter from the insurance company threatening to cancel us. I was pissed. |
