Escrow Companies Suck

At least the one we're going through does. They assigned our account to someone who promptly quit due to other circumstances within the company (we've heard four different versions of this story from the company). We're not sure how much time passed before someone else was assigned to our case, but the good faith check still hasn't been cashed, they haven't found the HOA rules and regulations, and they haven't filed the certifications needed to push the home loan through. We were supposed to close escrow on October 9, but thanks to the geniuses at the escrow company, we have to extend by another 30 days.

The upside? More time to pack.

The downside? More time in the apartment complex, which is starting to slide downhill very, very quickly.
