Inevitably things will happen and it can be very\u00a0 tricky to pull off a closing around a holiday. It\u2019s very hard to make sure everyone is doing what they are supposed to, and I always recommend trying to close during a normal week.<\/p>\n<p>If you are buying, feel free to call me as I am happy to share recommendations of banks we work with that are more reliable than others!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite being the week between Christmas and New Years, it\u2019s been a busy week in our office!
