Speaking completely theoretically, what is your exposure at this stage in the buying process if it did burn down? Would you be the owner of a nice piece of land?
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Oh, Drew, that must be gut wrenching.
Wow. Was it fun or annoying?
It was strange and amusing. I didn't have other work pressing so it didn't annoy me. I do have a tendency to appreciate benign absurdity though.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Hope your house remains safe, ND.
I have introduced Mr. S to the joy of popping bubble wrap. (Of course, being 2 he has popped all the bubbles and is searching the trash for more.)

It's hard to say. We are in contract, and I'm not sure either of the agents or the lenders have dealt with a situation like this. I'm sure it doesn't come up very often. The current owners are also in escrow for buying their new house so if this falls apart due to fire they would probably also lose that house, so it's a lot of stuff going on. Right now I think we will be okay. I just signed another stack of loan documents so that we can continue with escrow so we are proceeding as if it will all be okay.

The bank would probably pull out because the value would not be there. The whole thing just sucks so much.

That wouldn't solve the issue for us. We had to waive finance contingency. If the bank pulls out we are still under contract to buy.

Well, I assume they have to have a house, and whatever else is listed. Let's hope it never has to be dealt with!!!

So my neighbor had garage broken into same time as my attempt. But his garage is empty. And he has a camera. So he shared footage with me of a visibly pissed off dude heading to my garage where he was also sol. Good laugh at that.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I was sure I'd lost the LDB game for about 30 seconds today, until my mind processed the lyrics and realized the song was actually "Do You Hear What I Hear?"
