We found a house!

Provided everything works out this week, we sign the contract next week. They will start building in 5 weeks. We will be moving around Oct. or Nov.!

Awesome!!! I would love to build but my DH refuses.

[themysteriouswife]

I am nervous! I have no clue how any of this works.

[bugandbibs]

Awesome! We built our house too. Once you pick everything out there's not much to do but visit it every weekend and take pictures. Congratulations!

[gogadgetgo]

That's awesome! I would be equally excited and terrified of building. So many decisions to make.

Congratulations!

[kelle017]

Yeah! Congrats!

As if I didn't have enough anxiety over the wreck.

We found out tonight, our totaled car from 2010, is showing delinquent on our credit! As in over 365 days past due! It was paid off after the wreck mother effers! I get to spend all day tomorrow dealing with it.

If you are wondering how this effects our house adventures, the lender wants our credit to be 20pts higher for new builds. What the mother effing eff? We have to use one of three lenders the builder gave.

[bugandbibs]

That sucks! At least it's something that can easily be explained (as opposed to a legit issue with your credit). They require higher credit because they have a higher risk if something goes wrong during the build IIRC. I'm sorry you have to spend all day on the phone dealing with lingering problems from that accident.

[themysteriouswife]

Record time! 6 mins and problem solved. They are sending a letter and reporting the correct info within 15 days. It puts us back about 30 days, but that's ok.

[gogadgetgo]

Huzzah for a quick fix! Sorry about the delay but at least it's only a minor setback.

[themysteriouswife]

We are going back to look at the model today.
