So, the only real remaining issues we have are:

1) Home Insurance. Any type of coverage we should make sure we have? What's important in these policies?
2) Closing questions. Those of you that have been there before. Anything we should prepare for on closing day? Should we bring a lawyer or have a lawyer review the documents?

Thanks for the help guys, as always you've been extremely helpful!

I dont think i had a lawyer and for HOI I would look at who you have your car insurance with and see if there is a discount for having both together, I have Travelers and have a nice rate for both. Insurance shouldnt be much.
