Closing Time!!

So I sent First American Title an email yesterday to check on the paperwork and today I received the closing docs and instructions around 3:30. Hope you here something too.
If you don't mind my asking, who is your contact at First American? We passed ROFR the same day as you, and I haven't heard anything from them yet.

All done!!
Cons: Took longer than it should have (Capital One 360's fault) and received zero communication from broker (Vacatia) or title co after sending back the closing docs.
Pros: everything about the process with the title co, broker, and sellers went pretty smoothly. So while I would have preferred proactive communication, any time I did contact they responded within a day. We are excited to have almost doubled our points!

Read them carefully... I am the seller and I just got the closing documents referencing the wrong contract! Ugh! Don't know how long it will take to fix but I feel bad for the buyers... I don't want them to think that I'm dragging my feet. I was all set to stop by my notary at the bank and get the papers returned. Just don't want the company blaming me for the delay when it's their error!

Looked at the Orange County Compt. website and my address on warranty deed is incorrect. Is this something that needs to be corrected?
