Dirt and blackberry

We closed on the lot on Monday.   If you don't remember we made the first offer on the land on March 11.  It is Oct now.     So we are the proud owners of dirt, a few cherry blossom trees and blackberries.

A couple weeks ago we met with the architect for the first time face to face.  After heated discussions we have made a few changes in design to save money in construction costs.  We even cut back on the downstairs square footage. 

Next up verify storm water, get engineering done, get quick claim signed by seller.  Then permits and construction loan.
