Thanks in advance!

Alright.....now my answers to your questions:

1.  We forgot to bring the cashier's check for our closing costs....as funny as that sounds we were already at the table and I was signing documents when I realized it.  My partner ran out to the bank (luckily 3 min away) and brought it back before closing was finalized.

2.  Yeah, closings would be easier if you could get someone to sign for you! LOL.  There is a way for this to happen BUT, since it's only your first closing I won't get into those details right now.....I honestly can't think of anything that would make a closing easier.

3.  Clothes!  LOL.  Casual dress is fine, at least at my title company but I am a regular there.  When we first started I would go in "business attire" so maybe you want to begin there.

Good luck!  It's fun and before you know it going to closings is just going to be another thing on your weekly to-do list!

Now, in all seriousness, do you have any last minute questions?

I would add -- don't forget to pick up the keys!  That can be an easy thing to forget.  :)

Hey Everyone!

Just wanted to let you know I survived my first closing. :) I only suffered one small injury; a case of carpel tunnel from signing 100+ pages!

Thanks again everyone for your help!!
