Purchase and a sale on the same day is not a good idea.

Irina Bartnik Notary Public • February 8, 2021

Covid – 19 affected all of us in many ways this past last year.

Many people are now working from home and that creates some logistical delays. Banks are implementing new rules and restricting some banking activity. All of this affects the speed of preparation and registration of your file.

If you need the funds from the sale proceeds of your house in order to complete the purchase, it is not advisable to put the purchase of the house on the same day as closing of your sale. You will need to allow one or 2 days in between to complete without any delays.

It is even higher risk if both of your purchase and sale complete on Friday as legal offices are not open on a week end. If money from your sale are not received by 4p on Friday, you may need to wait until Monday to move in, but at the same time you will be required to move out.

Now, sometimes it just has to be on same day. Our office will do everything in our power to accommodate it. But often Money from your sale is not in our control. If you have purchase and sale scheduled on the same day, have the hotel booked for couple of days, just in a case.

Sincerely,

Irina Bartnik

Notary Public

Meet Brandy – Big Heart, Bigger Fetch Energy

By Andy Schildhorn • October 3, 2025

Brandy is a 2-year-old German Shepherd mix with a serious love for belly rubs, fetch, and being your constant shadow. She’s sweet, affectionate, and always ready to flop over for tummy time! This big, bouncy girl handles beautifully and is incredibly people-oriented—so much so that being left alone makes her sad. She will not hesitate to vocalize when she feels lonely or may try to find an escape route to get to her people. Because of this, she’d thrive in a home where someone is around most of the time to shower her with attention and keep her company. Brandy is easily excitable and can be jumpy when making new friends with people, so she’s best suited to a home without kids. She knows “sit” and “drop it,” has a cute little auto-sit when she wants something, and will gently place her toys at your feet for fetch (which she LOVES and doesn’t destroy—bonus!). Brandy also insists on being the one and only furry royalty in your life. She doesn’t want to share her humans, her home, or her toys—so no other pets, please! She’s ready to rule her kingdom solo as the Queen Bee she knows she is. If you’ve got a secure yard, a good throwing arm, and room in your heart for a one-dog show, Brandy just might be your perfect match. Check out LAPS here for more adoptables .
