売りに出していたバージニアの家がなかなか売れず、お化粧直ししたのが1月。買いオファーが入ったのが3月末。その後の交渉もスムーズに進み、明日クロージング（売買契約の履行）の運びとなりました。サインする書類がe-mail添付で届いたので、朝から夫婦で公証人のところに行ってサインをし、FedExの翌日配達便で発送したのがお昼前。明日にはバージニアに届いて、弁護士により売買契約が完了されます。今まで持っていた家の鍵とガレージドアのリモコンもFedEx便に入れて送る。すっきりしたような、さみしいような。新しいオーナーがかわいがってくれますように。Our house in Virginia has been on the market since last April. I went back to Virginia to do a little face lift on the house in January. We received an offer at the end of March. The post-offer negotiations, all the inspections and tests went smoothly, and we will close tomorrow. We received all the papers via e-mail, singed them, got them notarized and sent them back to our attorney in Virginia over FedEx priority overnight. I included the house keys and garage door openers in the package. It's so nice not having to worry about the property any longer, but it's so sad not being able to open that front door and go into the house any longer. I pray the house will be cherished and enjoyed by the new owner as it has always been for the past 10 years.
