We found out a week before closing on our house that we qualify for a $5000 interest free loan from the city housing dept because we are in a low enough income bracket. If we stay in the house for 10 years we don't have to pay it back. Our real estate agent said that we have to close on Friday because that is how the sellers are going to pay the contractors who put in the new HVAC system and to pay for tenting the house for termintes. The sellers agreed to pay for all that. I don't see why we have to loose the 5000 loan/gift because the sellers don't have the cash to pay the contractors, even though our contract says it is their responsibility to cover those costs. It would only take 3-4 weeks to get this loan through.My husband and I decided to just close on Friday but I am sick about it. I am not excited about owning our first house anymore and If we walk away from the house we loose $1200. help me feel better about this!!
