Our Hopeful House on Closing
It looks like everything is moving along. In ten short days we close and the hopeful house will be ours!!ππΊπ The inspection report was fantastic, lots of little things to fix, radon to mitigate, some electrical to update, nothing that cannot be done and nothing that will cost more than the house or even half the value.
We plan to move at the beginning of November, giving us time to pack, now that book 6 is out and selling. Please remember to buy a copy.
Things are falling into place, the opportunity to see the House was invaluable and we are so excited to start on this next adventure. As a matter of fact we just came back from buying packing tape so I can load up boxes and staging the house for packing and living at the same time.
What is the difference between the radon in this house and the other? This is a common question. In this one the levels go up and down as air circulates. It is also easy to vent outside in a walk out basement. Not so easy when both the crawl and basement are sealed like in that other house. In this house the air naturally circulates. In the other house, the air in the basement was trapped so radon could concentrate.
Aside from all that, this house is larger, has more storage, has nicer trees, and an extra bath. It may be only a toilet and sink, but we will appreciate that. Last, but not least, this house gives us projects, things we can do to make it better, to make it shine, and to make it ours. The other had everything done.
We are looking forward, not backwards and soon this hopeful house will be ours!
