Things are happening!

Stopped by today to turn in the rest of our 5% down and check out a few Calvert's that are closing soon. We wanted to see what it looked like with some of the options we selected, like the luxury master, no morning and room and flipped floorplan. I'm super excited about the master upgrade. The bathroom is awesome and the tray ceiling is surprisingly grand. They put the molding around the bottom of the tray with an outlet so lights could be installed to light up the tray. We think that could be a cool idea, especially with using Philip's Hue, but it could get pricy. The other thing I was curious about was how the double shower head in the master shower was dealt with. There are separate valves for each shower head. I think we're going to install a hand shower for the other side. Sorry there are no pics, I got so excited to see I totally forgot (doink!)

We found out we should know our dig date tomorrow and will be setting up our pre-construction meeting! FINALLY!

There was even a little bit of progress on our lot. It was staked out and there are utility meters!

A Quick Non-Update

The last several weeks have certainly been a test of patience. Which I have none of.

All our paperwork is done. Our mortgage has been sent to underwriting at NVR (anyone know how long that takes?).  All three units in our building have been sold, so they're wrapping up that paperwork. I know we're next to be built, but would love to know when they're going to get started. This radio silence is killing me!

Could also use a good kick in the butt to get our current house on the market, hard to stay motivated when everything seems so up in the air, not to mention I don't want to move twice - but maybe not as much as I don't want to sell our home in time. Anyone looking to move to Northern Kentucky??
