[Experiment 6-2-6]

I am a lawyer, but I don't do real estate law.

HOWEVER, I DO HAVE ONE QUESTION:

WHY ARE YOU BUYING A HOUSE INBETWEEN DUTY STATIONS?

I mean, it's your business, but if you're going to be relocated to another place in the world, is your wife and child to remain behind? But, assuming there are benefits that make it worthwhile, Escrow is just that. Either the deal closes or not. He is obligated to pay fees and penalties, but that's his choice. I would suggest you find a GOOD (not just out of law school) Lawyer.

However, again, if you are going to be sent to another post, how are you going to assist in the legal options you have if you are posted elsewhere?

[Per-Ling]

My job (MOS to you groundpounders) has me at 2 different duty stations (Ft. Gordon and Ft. Meade). The Navy isn't going to send me permanently anywhere else.

Thanks for the advice, but there are other variables at work here...
