Week 12 - Closing Date!

We're in the home stretch now! We received our settlement date: final walk through 5/30 and settlement on 6/2! We are thankful to Ryan Homes for accommodating our dates--they actually had us settling that last week of May, but we wanted a June date so we could pay our first mortgage in August and have one month of "free" rent.

This process went by so quickly. I can't believe we are less than a month away from owning our first home. No more throwing money away in rent!

We stopped by today and took some pictures. We were also told we should have our dormers installed next week. I'll throw a freaking party when I see those dormers up :P

Carpet in the basement

First floor - faucet was installed and we have water

Little peak on our hardwood floor

Plumbing fixtures were also installed. No peed in there, we checked

Driveway, sidewalk, apron... just missing landscaping

Back of the house was filled, too. We are making peace with the idea of a sloped backyard

Bathrooms Progress

We stopped by the house today. Our railings were stained and the walls are painted (not sure how many coats were done and will be done). The main update is in our bathrooms--we got flooring and tiles. It looks great! Oh, and we got our electric meter, so no risk for delays :D
