Construction Loan Finale! I know that doesn’t really work as a title, but I needed something to sound dramatic in order to match the level of relief closing our construction loan brings. This loan was supposed to be converted to a traditional mortgage in June 2020... We have been doing everything we possibly can to make that happen since we opened the loan in July 2019. In December 2020 we had everything in and approved to convert to a mortgage, then everything under the snow-filtered-sun prevented it from happening week after week. I’m pretty sure our bank contact got tired of my weekly check-ins to see if there was anything more we could do in order to push the close of the construction loan through. She was very kind and patient with me despite my high anxiety and obnoxiousness. Yesterday (Friday when everyone else was starting their sunny weekend) our bank person stayed late to help us through the final close and traditional mortgage opening. We feel like Frodo on Mt. Doom, without a finger and covered in his own filth, “It is done.” We still have projects to get done at the house, but it will be less stressful for us (although I admit that I shed some of my long-held stress over this situation in early fall when it struck me that this may be my constant reality and I can’t keep holding onto everything inside and still function as a human). We are looking forward to normal person mortgage payments and normal person home improvement projects 🥰😁💕 #hutrehab #hutrehabfornormalpeope #twobrokemorons #twobrokemoronscloseonaloan #alsotrees #thesunisshining #itsourstofix https://www.instagram.com/p/CODfvFnDf4v/?igshid=1ny0uubobnp4
