After some frantic last minute wire transfer drama, Ben and I signed the papers to officially close on our new condo this morning! We had to spend an hour signing more forms than I thought could have possibly existed (including one promising the FBI that we aren't terrorists, another affirming that "Ben" and "Benjamin" are the same person, and many others that contained fancy old-timey terminology like "witnesseth") and then sit around for another half hour waiting for the last-minute wire transfer to go through, but things went pretty smoothly overall. Now we just have to spend the next thirty years paying our mortgage, and voila! We'll be homeowners!
(We'll be out of town for the long weekend, but I hope to post some pictures soon!)
