Stone Exterior and Front Door Painted & Still Waiting on the Results of the Appraisal!

Drove by yesterday real quick and they were about 85% done with the stone exterior. Once the stone is complete, piece of vinyl trim will go the edge of the stone and vinyl siding on the side that we can see in the pics below.  Then shutters will go on the first floor window.  The front door had also been painted which will match the shutters.

As a reminder this is Elevation K, or the Cottage Elevation.



As for the appraisal, it has been done.  The appraisal results were suppose to go back to mortgage company on Monday, however, it was not.  My wife actually talked to the appraiser yesterday morning who said the information will be sent in yesterday morning, it was not.  Our mortgage provider said that they were supposed to get it by end of day yesterday, but they did not contact us either way.  So we are now one week away from closing and still don't know the results of the appraisal.

Think about this for a moment.  If the for some reason the appraisal comes back lower than the sell price of the house, we are then going to be in a battle between RH and ourselves on who adjusts what with only a week before we are suppose to close and our rate lock expires.  Also keep in mind that our appraisal was suppose to take place over three weeks ago.  Let's just say that the last three weeks have been a bit stressful.  We are this far along in the process and still don't have the results of the appraisal.
