House

I usually hate to post about things that are “in the works,” but hopefully fate will be on my side and it will get going. Steve and I are planning on building a new house at “the farm” probably across the valley from mom’s place. Mom’s wanting to build a new place too, but I am not sure what her schedule is. The wrinkle is that since the property is still mortgaged, we have to survey off the place where we want to build and then mom has to go to the bank and see if they’ll allow her to break it off of the current loan. This is totally new territory for me, so I find this stuff difficult to deal with because it is complicated and confusing and I am not sure which route is the best route. I also hate waiting for other people to do things. I’d like to get going on this now, but know mom doesn’t have time she can really take off of work to go to the bank or make phone calls during the day – until summer. Sigh.

Anyway – this is a short post, but one of the many things that are on my mind right now. The upside is that looking at house plans and thinking about hat end of things is a lot of fun for me. The financial/legal end isn’t.
