"Proud to tell your friends" . . . Huh? How can anyone say there are no conditions to buying a home here? There are tons of conditions, and they all favor the developer! It has nothing to do with TV being a sought after place. Seriously??? I mentioned nothing about "coldness" in the buying process. I did say everything was "cut and dry" and it was and is. You had, perhaps, a choice of maybe 6 items for a selection of something, as a for-instance. You had to make a choice out of the six. You couldn't supply your own. You had to take it or leave it. THAT describes "cut and dry!"



And yes -- the closing staff is pleasant. The developer sends all his closing to that law firm. They are beyond thrilled! They are lucky in that the closings are all the same with the exception of the actual property. The contracts are all the same and it is a repetition of one after the other; the same goes for the title insurance. The closings can be likened to the expression "Cookie Cutter" because they are all practically identical. You are in and out in an hour or so, depending upon if there is a mortgage, and everyone is all smiles. All closings are always terrific as long as there is no glitch.


I don't understand your gripe. If you want to spend more than 1 hour on a closing you have a problem, and quite honestly I don't know what that is. I never viewed closings as a social occasion.
