This morning went very smoothly. Our PM took us through the house from top to bottom and finished everything within about an hour. There are only a few minor things that needed to be blue taped. Our realtor was with us as well and she noted a few things that I didn't even see, like a huge scratch in the hall bathroom mirror. A lot of things on my list from Sunday were already taken care of before I had a chance to mention them so that was great. Since we've been to the house so many times and since we've talked with our PM through text a lot through this process he didn't need to spend a ton of time explaining the house today. Which was good because I only had an hour before I needed to leave to race to work to get there on time.
The house looks amazing now that there is grass and landscaping! |
The paperwork that we had to sign today. Funny that you have to sign something that instructs you to WATER, WATER, WATER the sod. |
Today was the first time I got to see the backsplash. So in love! |
It's so beautiful! |
It was also the first time I saw the floors in the morning room uncovered. This really is a morning room. The light at 8am was amazing! |
Before today we had heard from our PM that the Ryan Homes inspection went incredibly well. So well in fact that our house scored a 97.44/100. To quote a text from our PM:
"2nd best all year. Beats the average score by 2 points. Tight house. You have the best Rome I've built."
Woo hoo! We had an independent inspection a day before the Ryan one and he didn't find anything major either. Just small stuff that has either already been taken care of or will be at our 30 day. So thrilled that our house is solid. No complaints at all!
I wish I took more pictures today but it was such a race to get out of the house on time that I forgot the camera. So, loads of pictures of the house will have to wait. We are so very happy, though. This house is incredible and I'm already thinking of something we can buy our PM as a thank you for all of his hard work.
I cannot wait until the house is ours next week. Again, not looking forward to packing and moving but at least we know that this is the last time we will have to do it for a very, very long time! Tuesday can't come soon enough :)
It looks great! Hope these next few days go by fast!! Good luck at closing. :)
