Default Outrageous!

We are coming down the home stretch on finishing our new home in Buttonwood. It's been hard to swallow the builder's inflexibility during this process but the final blow came this morning. We found out that our house will be finished earlier than they had promised and, of course, we want to move in as soon as possible. Our realtor then informed us that we have to pay a $250 change order fee to change the closing date! It's unbelievable to us that they are changing us a fee for the privilege of handing over nearly $300,000 to them 3 days early! Has anyone else had this experience? I would think they would be delighted to have our money and have the property off their hands a little sooner.

Sorry, but I just had to vent a little. Thanks for listening. We're planning to swallow our pride and pay the fee so we can begin our new life in TV as soon as possible. Can't wait!
