A busy couple of days

They have been busy working on our house over the past few days, and we have been busy working with Beazer as well. By Thursday evening, they started putting the siding on our house...


By Saturday morning, the siding was all done...and the outside of our house really looks like a house!


Late last week we got a call from Tia, who works for Beazer Mortgage. She wanted to see if we had heard anything about all of the changes that have been going on in the mortgage industry over the past few months (apparently a lot of homebuyers are still unaware of the sub-prime mortgage crisis and its spillover effect on the rest of the mortgage industry). So we went into Indianapolis and met with Tia yesterday and talked about our options. It looks like everything is just fine, we may have to structure our loan somewhat differently, but it really should not be much of a problem.

We also got an e-mail message from Steve, the project manager, yesterday. He indicated that our home is now ready for the prime paint. He also said that our cabinets have been delivered. And sure enough, when we stopped by the house this morning, the boxes with our cabinets were sitting in the garage.


Then later in the day, we got another e-mail from Steve. He told us that our estimated completion date is November 1! So, figure another week or two before closing (we get to have an "orientation" and another chance to inspect the house before closing), and we should be in our house before Thanksgiving!!! We can't wait!

How exciting! November will be here before you know it. I still think Thanksgiving dinner out (with bonus fried chicken!) is the right decision, though. You'll probably still be knee-deep in boxes.

Super! That's exciting. Completion draws near. Your journey home is almost over!
