As per my thread started in January (here: http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/homecondo-owners-household-income-purchase-price-of-home-mortgage-amount)

We did purchase the home, and will move August 29!

Our current home was listed with an ambitious asking price, and obnoxious closing (6.5 months) and sold in 5 days for $4k less than asking (we made nearly $100k on the house in less than 3 years!) and with all that "fun" aside we are now beginning the real fun of decor selections, and other major decisions before the hole goes into the ground when the frost comes off this Spring.

I am going to post the link here, and for anyone that's interested in following (though, aside from decor help now, there won't be much action for a few months!) please feel free to comment either in the album, or on here with any tips, suggestions, colour preferences, etc to what I have posted. I would of course love to hear it, and welcome different perspectives to help us make our "lifer house" perfect.

I will be on mat leave through the entire construction of the house, surely getting to know the tradesmen and bringing them coffee's, so long as they let me stalk our house and let me take progress photos as it goes up!
