<div><br>
</div>
<div>I follow essentially the same format as Brent. I state the hard dates and sometimes insert disclaimers, such as 'to the best of my knowledge.'  I had one pesky escrow company a little while ago, so I called and spoke with them.</div>
<div>Somehow, they were under the impression that the house we were selling was worth much more than it actually was.</div>
<div>A Simple phone call cleared everything up.</div>
