Waiting

We were warned that there would be a lot of waiting during the house building process. That is completely true. Last week we were waiting for the subdivision's development company to approve the house plan. We were a bit worried because our house does not have a full brick or stone front and the covenant requires it. Out builder, Dave, reassured us that he had driven through the subdivision and there were a number of houses that did not have a full brick front. Sure enough, the development company came back and approved the plan.
Once that approval came back, we turned thing over to the bank. Now we are waiting for their assessment of the plan. We are hoping that they assess it at 5% above the actual cost. If it is, we won't have to put any money down for the construction loan.

I love waiting.
