A Key Phrase to Get Seller Help with Closing Costs

‘
I have a new fixer upper house article over at ezinearticles.com that shows you how to get the seller to help pay your closing costs when purchasing a house.

Townhouse Purchase Update
The mortgage company has given the green light and we are now waiting for the title company to get the paper work together. We will probably close tomorrow or Friday.
