So after what has felt like an eternity, we are finally all moved into out temporary housing (apartment). I have to say that leaving our home for the past six years comes with mixed feelings. Of course there are the sad feelings, we have been here for so long. This house has raised our three beautiful children and has been the recovery center for many of our accidents and surgeries so yes we will def miss all the moments we have shared in this house from family game night to the parties in the back yard , this house has definitely been a great home to us. On the flip side to that , I have to say that I am defintely excited about the vacation from home ownership. To get a break from yard maintenance and usual homeowner chores will be nice for a few months. I guess this will give us time to rest up because we know the work will be on once we move.
In other good news we heard from our SR over the weekend and we are scheduled to have our pre- construction on Wednesday and construction is set to begin on Aug 15th ..yay!!!!!!! We have trolled so many blogs so we already have a pretty good list of questions to ask during the meeting. We are definitely hoping the PM is nice because there are a few things we would like to do that we hope won't be a problem...like installing the extra installation in the interior walls and running some speaker wire but we may just wait until the pre- drywall meeting for those conversations. Hopefully Wednesday will go great.
Yay for getting a pre-construction meeting date! Exciting. I will make the suggestion that you ask EVERY question you have at the pre-construction meeting. This is usually the last opportunity you have to make changes (and sometimes it's already too late, which we ran into). So, definitely ask the speaker wire question as soon as you can. Good luck! And have fun being renters for a little while!
