Things are definitely progressing…
Monday, January 5th, 2009We are now tenants in our old house…it now belongs to FIL. All of the property swaps have been done, the loan is in place, the house has been contracted and is being built at the factory, and the foundation is in place. I need to post pictures of the property before the foundation was put in and after, but I don’t have them on this computer, so it will have to wait.
The house gets delivered later this week, weather permitting, and then they do the finish work on it, and on the property. Things like putting the new septic tank in, the electricity to the new house, removing the water lines to the OLD house, etc. The scrub brush on the septic field needs to be gotten rid of and a low growing…something… needs to be put in. Hubby wants clover. We’ll see what happens.
We’re making progress on the packing. We rented a Pack Rat (a competitor to PODS) and we’re filling it up. Once it is full and we’re ready to move, we’ll get it picked up at our current house and moved to the new place and then unload it there.
Tentative move date is mid-March.
I’ve included a copy of the final floor plans, just so you can get an idea of the layout of the new house. Pretty spiffy and just what WE want.
