The wrench.<\/p>\n
It has been thrown.<\/p>\n
Like I said, we were supposed to get the keys today—in theory<\/a><\/b><\/i>. But when our agent went to check things out, the keys didn’t work. They key in the lockbox on the door for showing agents did not work.<\/p>\n Somebody changed the locks.<\/p>\n Apparently sometimes in cases of a short sale, the bank involved gets a little…overzealous? uppity? fucking stupid?…and jumps the gun on changing the locks in preparation for seizing the property in case of a foreclosure. The selling agent surmised that the bank in this case had pulled such a move. He set out to investigate.<\/p>\n The selling bank did not change the locks.<\/p>\n The selling agent<\/i> did not change the locks.<\/p>\n The actual owners<\/i> are in COLORADO<\/i>, so they don’t exactly have easy access to the property anymore.<\/p>\n Who the fuck changed the locks?<\/p>\n SOMEBODY<\/i> had to do it.<\/p>\n It’s a big-ol-mystery.<\/p>\n So we had to cancel having the water turned back on tomorrow morning until we know when we’re going to have access to the house.<\/p>\n If it comes down to it, we’ll get the damn locks drilled out and put in new ones. We were going to replace the locks as soon as we took possession anyway.<\/p>\n But nobody wants to take responsibility for throwing the wrench that’s screwing us over.<\/p>\n Sure we originally hadn’t planned on actually having the keys until tomorrow anyway, but still, we don’t even know WHO CHANGED THE LOCKS<\/i><\/b> so we have no idea when<\/i> we’ll have access to the house, but it better fucking be tomorrow because IT’S IN OUR FUCKING CONTRACT.<\/p>\n It’s a good thing we’re not scheduled to actually move in<\/i> tomorrow. I’d be digging into a box so Giant Frog could start cutting some bitches. He’s getting claustrophobic with all those Eeyores and his fingers are getting twitchy.<\/p>\n HEAD.<\/p>\n DESK.<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The wrench.
