Close of Escrow

Well today is a good day. I have officially closed my first Escrow! Although I have been working very hard it wasn't until today that I finally felt like a legitamate Real Estate agent.

Although it seems like the hard part is actually finding a place for someone, it turns out that going through the month long escrow period is the hardest part of selling a house. Not only are there piles of paperwork but there is negotiating, inspections, reports, not to mention waiting around for the lender to approve the loan. It is a trying experience but well worth it in the end. I was so happy today to hand over the keys to my buyer and be a small part of them buying their very first house.

On another good note, the weather is warm and it appears Spring is finally here...although I could definitely do without the seasonal allergies.
