My husband and I are buying a short sale home. Things have actually been moving pretty fast as far as short sales go. We put in a offer on 4.21.09 and it was accepted that day. So, now.. it’s 6.17.09 and everything is approved and ready to go. My realestate agent says that nothing can fall through at this point because everything is approved. So, what’s the hold up? We and the sellers have been approved for at least 3 weeks already and waiting to get a closing date. What is going on and why is this date taking so long to get if everything is approved (both buyer and seller)?
p.s. my realestate lady also told me that the person at countrywide (the sellers lender) who is going to get us a date….. on 6.11.09 (a week ago) had 24 cases ahead of ours and they would get to it when they were done with those. What exactly does that mean?? And whats the time frame?
