Just four days since my last visit, but the second floor is well under-way.
We closed on the construction loan yesterday, finally. So, everything is official and legal and paid for. Turns out the builder should probably not have done any building on the lot before then: insurance issues. But, he's an impatient guy and went ahead anyway. That's fine with me - get 'er done! The realtors who work for the builder to assist us with the process were making noises like this could be done in three months. Gulp.
We're picking out exterior paint colors, this weekend.
Awesome.
Also, it never occurred to me that if I were to build a house, the exterior paint colors would need to be selected.
How much time have you spent on this would you guess? Just curious.
…and the colors of the accent stone stuff that will go around the front, the wood trim, the shutters, and the shingles. which seems overwhelming. but then we learn that the builder ordered the front door without consulting us, and it feels like we’ve been cheated! we want to make all the decisions, but are stunned by how many there are. yay!
no idea how much time… my wife’s been doing most of the day to day communication with them, since she’s working from home these days.
