We completed our final walk-through today. I was nervous and excited all rolled into one. I couldn't wait to see the finished product and all our selections come together. In order to keep myself on track, I went with a room by room checklist. (I can post that later if anyone is interested.) Our PM started with all the paperwork, warranties, and "boring" stuff. Then, we walked the house.
We had a roll of tape to mark anything we saw an issue with. There were really only a couple minor things- a paint bubble, an imperfection in the drywall area where the wall meets the ceiling, a small spot of paint on the floor in the bathroom, and a cabinet door that someone drilled through and then tried to repair. All of that will be taken care of. We're not worried about it. We were VERY happy with the attention to detail. We cannot wait to move in! (Now, if only I could find some magical packing fairies to box our current place up!)
We just can't believe this day has come already. It seems like just last week we wandered into a model home "just looking" and to get some info! The time has flown by!
Now we wait for closing! HURRY UP AND BE FRIDAY ALREADY!
Until then, here are some pictures:

We are very happy with our selections and cannot wait to officially call this place HOME!
The kitchen island. Sigh. I love it so much.
ReplyDeleteAnd I've been dreading these past couple days. They're supposed to start our siding, and we chose Irish Thistle. I've been panicking that it's not going to be what I want, so it's good to see it on your house. Makes me feel better, haha!!
Everything is looking great! I am so excited for you guys!
And if you get a chance, post that list you mentioned. I'm scouring the internet looking for anything and everything I can ask questions about, and since we just got word of our pre-settlement and such, I'd love to see your list :-)
Good luck with closing on Friday, and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!
Thank you! After our walk through, I looked at my husband and said, "So... uh... is it terrible for me to say that I think I actually like the island after all?" He just laughed at me.
DeleteI think the Irish Thistle siding looks so much prettier in person! I hope you like it! I was so nervous too! When I first saw it, it was dark out so it looked very grey, and I was so upset. Then the next day, I saw it in the sunlight and really liked it! It's always so hard picking these big design pieces from such small samples.
Keep an eye out! I will post the list I used in a day or two. I have to format it for the blog.
Well Friday is here!!! So work on fixing the basement for an in law suite then we will be available for babysitting LOL. It is lovely can't wait to see it in person.
