Quick Update
So, our developer has threatened to walk if we don't close on Friday.... this is especially interesting since we don't have to LEGALLY close until April 30th. Its a long story, but we originally wanted to close on the 16th - the developer rewrote the contract for us to close on the 30th to give him some extra time to finish. About 3 days after we signed the contract, he informed us that he wanted to close earlier (????) so we agreed, since that's what we had originally wanted anyway, BUT, we never changed the contract from the 30th closing date. As written, we need to close on or beofre April 30th. After I left the place today, the developer told my realtor that if Adam and I wanted to walk away from the deal he would give us back our 40K deposit and just ask that we remiberse him for the cost of the custom paint (that's a whole other story I don't have energy to get into)... Odd that a guy that is so DESPERATE to close on a house is willing to walk away. Why does he think he can strong-arm us? He's messing with the wrong people - we don't scare easy. Adam and I decided to give an ultimatum to my current employer, they didn't take it, I accepted the job in NYC -- we aren't afriad of this ultimatum. He's the guy with something to loose...
The developer is saying that he is going to have HIS HVAC guy come and make corrections tomorrow - so we need to give him a chance to fix it before Adam's uncle comes to inspect. Honestly, I can't believe all the drama that is going on. The developer actually threatened to walk??? The bank is banging down his door to get their money back... why does he think he can man-handle us to close before we are confident that everything has been resolved...
UGH.
