The process of choosing the house was relatively easy, much easier than I thought. I came to VA in early spring to look at 3 houses and chose the last one we saw. We put an offer in the next week and we were under contract by the following week!
Our loan process, however, was a little more complicated. Because I work, our lender needed proof that I was transferring within my company, but my company didn't want to give me documentation of a transfer until I had actually transferred. So, it took us over a month to get all of this info, and had to delay closing by a week. All in all, compared to some, it probably wasn't hugely complicated, but it sure felt that way when we were trying to deal with it all from NJ when we were both still working full time!
It's all behind us now though, and we are officially moved in and mostly settled. I've started back to work in my new store and James is going back to work this week. I don't think he's particularly excited about having to be at work at 5am every day for the next 4 years though =(
