Hi everyone so this just was informed to me yesterday.....any advice please? I was in the midst of buying my old home $285K as I saw it on the market. It's special to me because when I first moved to TX from Calif ....my son and his father all moved here together. Son was 4 at the time. Unfortunately my son's father passed at age 29 from testicular cancer 2009 and I impulsively sold the house. Saw it was on the market again about three weeks ago and with a POA I attempted to pull equity out of my moms home so to get a down payment for the home. I was just told late yesterday that due to the POA being notarized at my home and not a lender or title company or atty office, the deal will now fall through as for using equity money. I need 66K in order to salvage the deal and only have a week left other wise they will place it back on the market. 😭 Please any advice? I called my 401k I can't pull out as I'm an active employee...I don't have any other cash or credit cards to pull from except just enough for the earnest money.
