I asked for and got a copy before closing and the 15 minutes gave me just enough time to be sure what they were asking me to sign matched the copy I reviewed with my attorney.
"Someone who had been reported themselves," Sadly, these things can and do make things miserable for all.

I none of the closing paper work has ever been 4 pages on any house I have purchased. But, okay. As for 15 minutes, that is not my personal experience. I was not rushed at all. I had all the time I wanted to read and ask questions. I was provided with refreshments and help on anything I didn't understand. Here was the most pleasant home buying experience I have ever had.
I mentioned the "no lawn ornaments" clause in the covenant, and that I had seen some around as we were driving around TV. They said that enforcement was complaint driven and normally small unoffensive ornaments received a "letter" only if a complaint was filed.
I think "Christians" for a past few decades have felt persecuted and look for any excuse to add to that feeling, but I could be wrong.
