Moved

After about two weeks of moving, I am finally moved out of the house and into an apartment. Trying to squeeze an entire house into a 2-bedroom apartment is not easy by the way. The apartment looks like a bad rummage sale. Hopefully it will be better later this week when some of the large collection of boxes and furniture in the apartment living room gets moved out to another apartment. Friday was supposed to be the closing date for the house, but in typical real estate fashion, I have no idea whether we actually closed or not. No one called to tell me that we did, and of course the wire transfer of the proceeds didn’t take place yet either. I always get nervous about wire transfers… who knows where the money could get sent. And I swear I don’t understand what the people involved in real estate transactions get paid for. They don’t do jack to earn their money from what I can see. They are close to worthless. All the real work is done by the seller and buyer. All the buyer’s real estate agent does is search the MLS to find a house for the buyer and take the buyer around. All the seller’s real estate agent does is consult on the sale. And don’t get me started about the Title Company…Talk about a racket.
