Architectural Controls

Posted by with 2 comments | in
I mentioned Architectural Controls briefly a few weeks ago and had mentioned that it was one of the final pieces of the puzzle that we were waiting on before we could finalize everything with the house.  We were told to budget approximatively $2,000.

The final number came in and I'm so excited to share that it's $1,076.25!  That combined with some other tough decisions leave us with this final breakdown of our new home purchase:


We also received our draft blue prints to review tonight and tomorrow we sign off on the final plans!

    Isn't it great to have the hard decisions made? Now you just have to wait for them to get started, watch the builders like hawks, make sure you get everything you paid for, pack, pack, and move! Piece of cake! Don't stress out too much.
