Hmmm

What do you do when the crazy guy you bought your house from refuses to leave? Yes you read it right--the crazy guy we bought our house from will not leave. I need to vent so here it goes.
MAY: Contract is agreed on which includes a contingency on the sale of our condo.
JUNE: Buyers back out on the condo. Crazy owner guy freaks out and wants us to do an inspection to show our commitment. We go ahead and do the inspection to pacify him. We really had no idea how crazy this guy is at this point.
JULY: Contract on house expires with no contract on the condo. Crazy guy is reluctant to sign the extension. He wanted us to commit to closing at the end of the extension even if the condo wasn't sold. Well, uh, no. We can't afford to take that kind of risk. He tried a couple of other tactics that weren't in our interest so we just said no and it's not a big deal for us to find another house. Crazy guy finally gives in at the end of the night and agrees to a 30 day extension.
AUGUST: New contract on the condo is signed so we push everything through to get things closed ASAP. Crazy guy originally wanted to close in 3 weeks but freaked out when we actually had the closing scheduled at the 3 week mark. He even went as far as to say his title company couldn't get him to sign papers until 2 days after we signed. Crazy guy freaked out over a closing cost issue aka $900. The guy is making over $100,000 on this sale and he made a big hoopla over $900. So the contract states he has 24 hours after closing to be out of the house which was noon yesterday. He is still there. HELLO---Get the **** out of my house!!!!!! He even had the nerve to say this to our realtor: "I'm emotionally attached to this house, and I don't want them moving in." Are you kidding me? Give us our money back and we'll find another house. He's still refusing to leave but says he will be out by tomorrow morning. If this were someone who was nice and easy to work with we would have no problem giving them more time. But this guy is seriously CRAZY!!!!!!!!!
