Down but not out yet...

Gayle, I am so sorry you weren't approved and I am so sorry your mother said that to you. I don't blame you for not wanting to talk to her, seriously, the most hurtful things always seem to come from family, doesn't it? Anyway, I hope the bank can approve you OR will! You need a break and a nice house so you can get a DOG again

As always Mikey and I are rooting for you! If you want a picture, I'd be happy to provide some later

I disagree with the majority here, I completely think she should have signed for you. The market can only go up and this is the time to buy.

She's said alot of hurtful things along the road, I had just hoped we were past that with dad's stuff that we went thru together. So I will take a break from her for a while.

I'd love pics of Mikey! He's such a good, silly dog. Please give him a big HUG from me!!

And thank you both for your support. I am truly grateful.

Hoping for a hopeful update!

Sorry, no good update at all. Met with my lawyer today and she advised I do not pursue getting a home at this time. So that dream is on hold now for a while longer, sorry Cali and Diego. I'm pretty concerned, upset with the turn of events in this never ending settlement nightmare.

Did she give you any idea of how long you will have to wait until your ex's stuff is off your credit report? And is there anything you can do to build even better credit now?

I am a firm believer that owning a house is not always the answer for everyone or all situations. Hang in there a while longer. The housing market is going to be stale for quite some time.

Your dogs will be fine, too. They only need you and a happy you.

Chin up.

I would look for another financing company/bank/community credit union/owner mortgage.

I hope your ex rots in hell. Sorry. But I do.

Your Mom has all the right to say no. If I were your Mom, I would have said yes. All Moms are not created equal!

Chin up, chin up, chin up. You can pick your friends but you cannot pick your relatives.
