account three days before closing. Their father had given them money to buy new furniture and appliances for the house. Their mortgage company checked balances the day before and it was “dinged,” as it required a gift letter from the father to explain the source of the deposit. The father had just gone out west for a hunting/fishing trip and no one could reach him. This delayed the closing by two weeks. In Conclusion, a reader like yourself who takes the time to read up before putting their home on the market is already ahead of the game! I could fill an entire book with crazy things that come up every day, from asbestos to zoning issues. There is plenty to keep you on your toes when selling. These were a few examples that I hope will help you.
