I have to share my exciting news!
I haven't told my family yet because I'm still worried it won't happen, but I gotta tell someone!!
We were pre-approved for a home loan and are working with a home builder to get a house built! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! We've been married over 5.5 years and have lived in 6 different rentals in that time - from a tiny 400 sq. ft. apt to a mouse infested trailer. I am SO READY for a house!! And what's crazy is that we will pay less a month for this mortgage than we do in rent right now. House prices are crazy awesome where I live right now! The house is soooo cute and the builder does some really nice features as standard options in their homes (like granite counters and CROWN MOLDING in the main room, kitchen and dining rooms <----eeeeeeeeeee!) I have some ideas for switching up the floorplan and they are willing to work with me to include those at no extra cost. My hubby is an HVAC tech so he will be installing the AC at cost and instead of them paying the company for labor and the profit on the AC (Tyrel works for our BIL), we will get to pick a few upgrades to the house. It's about 1500 sq. ft (3 bed 2 bath), which isn't huge, but it will be the perfect size for our family of 4 and about double the size of the place we're in now. And I'd finally have a walk-in closet!! I'm soooooo excited!

Cool for you! Best of luck so that it comes true.
BTW, I never fail to be amused at the different US/European mindset when it comes to housing - 400 sq feet is HUGE here, and 1500 sq feet is discouragingly vast, LOL. :-)

that is SOOOOO exciting! I hope it works out.
We're hoping to "upgrade" soon. And I think 1500 sq ft is PERFECT! Ours is about 1900 (we have an extra living area) and it still fits our family of 6 just fine! (but we are getting excited about the thought of bigger!) |

I can imagine. Even though we have 4 kids now, they are all tiny and don't take up much space (though their toys and clothes do!)... as they grow, I know that will all change. I'm ready to move! But, we aren't desperate, claustrophobic or cramped--that's just what's next in our lives!

|

Yeah!!!! We are still in our first house and we love ours!!! Enjoy the process!!!

Congratulations! That's fantastic, that you can get something bigger and all yours for less than you're paying in rent. I'm jealous that you're building new! Around here things are so built up that building new is either very expensive or in an inconvenient location.

OH my gosh, Megan! I am beyond excited for you! I was seriously disappointed last time, but look at how much better this house is! And I can not wait to see how you decorate it! Now that I'm not pregnant anymore I actually care a little bit about decorating our house again. And I definitely have closet envy. Our closets are pretty ridiculous.

Yes, but I don't have any. lol They have finished another with nearly the same floorplan but they haven't published them on their website... they did show the pics to us when we met with them on Saturday though. I will share if they put them up on their site.
