We placed our order on Tuesday of this week! All of the choices have been made and we can only hope that we didn't miss anyting! Colors, light placement, 3-way switches, all decision that were difficult for this process are complete.
We had our contractor meeting on Monday night and hope to have his numbers back next Monday so we can establish what we can afford for our budget, and set up a timeline as to how we are going to complete this process. The meeting with the contractor went very well, he asked questions that we hadn't even thought about, and brought some good points up about some of our ideas. We have a pretty standard list of things that will need to be completed, with a couple of additional wants added in.
We are pouring a 9' basement, adding a garage (size not determined yet), driveway, septic, well, and a porch. When the numbers come back we can better establish the size of the garage, the type of porch, and the size and type of the driveway.
There are a lot of phone calles to be made for obtaining permits, but before this can happen the land must be put in our name. We are currently waiting on the title company so we can sign the papers to make the land ours. This should also happen early next week.
As soon as the numbers come back from our contractor, we will set up a meeting with the mortgage broker and get our loan started.
