The Paper Maze

Wow! The mortgage agent threw a ton of stuff at me and at the end of it all my head was buzzing. I thought I was well prepared, but I was wrong by a long shot. And then at the end, I had to put my signature on a dozen documents. I had nary the time to read through the fine print. This is overwhelming stuff. I had read the "Home buying for dummies" book, but nothing prepared me for this. Good news is that qualifying for the loan will be a cinch. The bad news is that the house we want to make an offer on has attracted quite a few. More than likely this will be a bidding war and I'd hate to get myself entangled in one.
