The attached invoice is associated with the closing of the last At Home Dania Beach house. This is the closing that was delayed several months due to a lien and title issue. The City was at fault for the delayed closing, not the buyer. Therefore, I committed for the CRA to reimburse any extraordinary costs due to the delay. This invoice is for an updated appraisal for the closing bank – the original appraisal expired due to the delay. The payment for this appraisal update was added to the buyer’s closing costs. I was aware of this added cost before the closing, but we could not make a direct payment to the appraiser as it was already on the closing statement. Therefore, the $180 fee on this invoice needs to be reimbursed to the buyer: Tremena Blake 40 NW 14th Ave Dania Beach, FL 33004 I think the appropriate budget line for this payment is: 106-52-552-31-10. However, I am not sure if we can cut a check to a non-professional individual from that account. Please advise how we get this done. 3 Mike K.

Our system is set up so that we will charge your debit card for the appraisal as soon as I order the appraisal. Appraisals have been taking up to 2 weeks to obtain. If the city is going to credit you for the cost of the appraisal, this will need to be done at closing. Please all parties confirm this as I need to order the appraisal as soon as possible.

I spoke with you last week Tuesday 8/31/2021 regarding the delayed Closing for the house I have been approved to get at 40 NW 14th Ave Dania, FL 33004 due to existing liens and unpaid judgements that were discovered and not resolved. The initial closing date was 6/15/2021 but it has been extended numerous times. The appraisal expired 9/4/2021 but you did advise during our call that I will not be held responsible to pay for another appraisal and that the city will pay for it. However, I am still having issues in other areas of my life due to the delayed closing. I need to turn in my vehicle which I can not do so because I can not close. The bank has to keep running my credit and there are credit report fees I have to keep paying for. The list goes on and on. This delay has created a domino effect of problems for me. Majority of people I was previously contacting are no longer answering my calls or replying back emails anymore. On Monday I emailed Kathleen Weekes asking for an update on this matter and she replied advising that you would be calling me with an update. When I called you last week Tuesday 8/31/2021, for the first time, you explained the liens and judgements on the property from 2008 which were supposed to be paid by the city which totals in an approximate amount of $5,700 you explained that judgement is expired and no longer has to be paid. You advised that you would check with the attorney for a "progress report" and you would call me back with an update. Please let me know what's going on. Weeks are going by with no progress. I have been doing my own research on this and I have found that the judgements are not expired. Please advise when the city of Dania will pay what is due so I can close. This has been dragged out long enough. I can not close on a property that has open liens. I should not be held responsible for this later on in life. It should be handled and paid before I close. Please point me in the right direction of who I need to speak to to get this resolved as soon as possible. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Mena Blake <tsblake01@gmail.com> Date: Mon, Aug 30, 2021 at 10:02 AM 6 Subject: Need to Close at 40 NW 14th Ave Dania, FL 33004 ASAP - Tremena Blake To: Weekes, Kathleen <kweekes@daniabeachfl.gov> Good Morning, I hope all is well with you. The newest closing date at the bank was set for September 4, 2021, that's when my appraisal will expire, if not I have to pay for another appraisal. I have been told by a few people that I should be closing by the end of August 2021. I was told this at the beginning of August 2021. Today is August 30, 2021 and unfortunately I am still not closed. The closing date for this property has been pushed back so many times. This delay really has been stressing me completely out because it is really putting a huge strain on my personal life. It is now time for me to turn in my car but I can't because I haven't closed. I can not touch my credit. This is going to cost me money that I shouldn't have to pay. The car dealership has been calling me for months regarding this. I truly wish that the issue with the lien on this house was discovered and corrected last year. Besides the closing date being pushed up so many times since June 15, 2021. I was asked to go check on the property from time to time to make sure there's no damage being that it's an empty house. I do not have a key to go in because we haven't closed yet but I am able to view the inside of the house from the windows while standing outside. I find that the facials on the roof are not sealed. There's several cracks on the edges of the roof. The lights outside are missing, I'm sure someone took the original lights that were there if they were there. The windows have cracks and holes that are causing ants and several bugs to come inside the house especially near the sliding glass door. There may be a bug infestation throughout the house. There's cracks on the ceiling by the front door and on the outside walls by the front door. Also when I viewed the house back in February 2021 there was no washer or dryer. I was told I would get the washer and dryer when I close.I just want to make sure that still stands. I'm sure all of the above issues can be fixed. My question is when will it be? I don't want to move in the house with these existing problems because I'm sure once I move it there will be a delay on fixing them. I really need to close on the house this week. If not, I have no other choice but to wait. It's a beautiful home and I am happy that it will be mine but I do not want this to be dragged out any longer. Again this is a beautiful home that I'm so excited to have but this experience as a first time home buyer has been horrible with this issue of the lien on the title. The last update I received was on 8/24/2021 advising the city attorney is trying to avoid paying the judgement which can not be avoided so I won't have any future issues. I hope you can understand my frustrations. I'm hoping and praying that we can close this week. Please let me know. -- Respectfully, Tremena Blake 7 Phone: 954-274-7670 Email: tsblake01@gmail.com *The information contained in this electronic e-mail transmission and any attachments are intended only for the use of the individual or entity to whom or to which it is addressed, and may contain information that is privileged, confidential and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
