341 and we get this so-called "diligent" trustee

[AngelinaCat]

Hi freeatlast09. I'm curious too... I hope things are better....

[freeatlast09]

I thought I'd bump this thread and see how things went with the move and if BofA actually approved the TTs short sale.

I hope all is well.

And we know your Trustee is 'Nuts' - so IMO, that does it for your Sundae of Suck!!

Just for S&Gs - have you priced movers? I was pretty amazed at the quotes we got versus the cost of boxes, bubble-wrap, truck rental, time off from work, etc. not to mention the stress on us (especially my back and DH's hip). I was told that if we moved a few things like the stuff they WILL NOT move (cleaning supplies, lighter fluid, etc.) and the items that super increase the cost of a move (bedding, pillows, mirrors and big pictures) we could save a great deal and their quote showed it. We are of the age that pizzas and a case of beer doesn't entice folks to help you move and we don't have a church or other affiliations where folks volunteer to help you...

Hope your weekend is both peaceful and productive.

We're definitely planning to hire a couple of pro movers. We know we aren't as fit as we were back in our twenties and there's no sense potentially getting injured -- especially since the health care benefits for me and DH won't kick in until 10/1. It was just kind of depressing today. We had a kid party in the backyard and a couple of the parents were there commenting on how perfect the backyard is for playing (nice and flat and pretty large). It just drives home the suck factor of what we have to do even more. And people just don't understand, they really can't imagine why we'd have to move and we don't feel like going into a long story about going bankrupt and the trustee going after our house to pad his income.

At least tomorrow we'll be able to really get down to packing and hopefully be able to hear before the week is out that we have a place secured for sure. It sounded pretty positive on Friday when the apt manager ran the credit check on us. They saw the bankruptcy and said they saw it discharged, then said based on what they see so far it seems like we'll be approved. That'll take a huge load of stress off if we know for sure where we're going in a week.

No need to apologize, Valle. I'm just having a sucky year all around, that was just a cherry on top last month.

[ValleYum]

Gah! R2BK I also meant to offer you condolences on the loss of your mother. My apologies for my lack of manners.

[AngelinaCat]

I too, am sorry for your loss, especially at this time with all the other stuff going on.

[despritfreya]

Well, it's over for us. We have to just go ahead and work towards moving out. . .

Absolutely. Time to close one door and open another. “Life” happens for a reason and what happens in the past and present makes us stronger to deal with what will happen in the future.

Des.

PS: My condolences on your loss.

[Resigned2BK]

It ain't over till the fat lady sings. I'll believe it when the "deal" closes - if it closes.

Well, it's over for us. We have to just go ahead and work towards moving out because we have to be able to get things packed and physically moved out. That takes more than a couple days notice for a typical single family house. Upside is we decided based on looking at storage locker fees that we might as well get either a 3 or 4 bedroom someplace. If there's a way to have everything we want to keep (we both have hobbies and the ) all within our living space instead of scattered across a couple of storage units off site and maybe a couple inlaw houses. Thank heavens I finally started a full time job last month -- even though it's really bottom basement pay. It's marginally better pay than McDonalds. It's so fun almost being 40 and feeling like I'm a teenager with my earning power.

I'm stunned that BofA actually approved a short sale. . .

Holy cow! This is just ridiculous. I'm sorry for your recent loss and all this extra nonsense.

I'm stunned that BofA actually approved a short sale and somebody is paying the 20k carve-out fee. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised by this - we can't wait to get rid of our old place so they drag their heels and say they'll get around to it eventually (3 1/2 years now), but you'd like to stay a bit longer so they naturally move quickly.

We'll cross our fingers that you get a little extra time and encounter no more problems in your rental process.

All the best.

[Resigned2BK]

I am so sorry.

Do remember the house in the above scenario was EMPTY.

Hopefully, you will get a decent amount of both notice to move and cash for keys.

I hope so. Yeah, I noticed that situation is that the house is empty and maybe the owners just wanted it expedited. I sure hope that's why it was pushed up by that judge 10 days faster.

[ValleYum]

ARGH!!! It's a very similar timeline to ours. Judge hearing scheduled for the 25th, same Friday as ours (27th). Judge ends up scooting the date to the 15th in that case. WTF! Then this buyer has keys in hand on the 28th? Not even August???????

I am a very distressed camper right now. We NEED the ability to move in a few days past August just in case the apartment complex we go to won't turn over keys until the 1st!!!

Also, notice how in the real estate forum thread, they are paying $210 with a $15K carve out? So what in the heck is up with having a $20K carve out on a place that's only going for $150K??? Something is very very wrong in Denmark here.

I have no words of wisdom for you wish I did. I just wanted to let you know I'm so sorry for the lost of your mom and all the crap your going though. Here is hoping that the next bend in the road will be so much better for your family.
