#there've been a number of things where i read something online and thought

[theemperorsfeather]

I was expecting to hear something from my real estate agent on Monday, cause that was the official closing date, but I didn't, and alternated between worrying that something had gone Horribly Wrong and believing that if something HAD then someone would definitely have been in touch, and so I didn't bother contacting her to ask.

Today I finally got over my various anxieties and texted her and she said she -did- text me Monday, but she was out of town and her service may not have been all that great (Monday I was also in the process of setting up my new phone, so it's possible the problem was on my end), and everything is fine.

Which is certainly great! everything is fine! but I was also expecting her to tell me about the last important step: how to pick up the keys. I feel like I shouldn't need to um ask this, you know?? Especially since it's been known for about 2 months that the sellers would be staying in the house for 10 days past closing so the usual "sign and get the keys on the spot" process wasn't going to be possible.
