Well, we finished the week a few steps closer to starting the construction of our new home! Reality has set in now - we own land and are about to build a house...and have a mortgage...WOW :-).
We went by the bank Thursday to get things rolling on our construction loan. Lisa Pennington and the people at BanCorpSouth have been really helpful in this whole process. We hope to get the appraisal back and finish the paper work this coming week.
Met with our contractor again Thursday night with a few questions and signed the builder's agreement. He is ready to begin just as soon as the bank finalizes the paperwork.
Electric service should be ran early next week to the property. We are still shopping rates on road boring to bring the water line over from the opposite side of the road. If you know of anyone with reasonable rates...let us know.
Here lately, I find myself wondering out on the land just looking it over. Nothing is really going on yet, it's just I am so excited about our dream that is about to become a reality!
We have already started picking out specifics for the house such as doors, windows, sinks, faucets, paint, flooring, brick...yadah, yadah, yadah. PHEW! Overwhelming at times...
I will try to post an image of the floor plans soon. Have a great weekend!
