Our pre-pre-settlement walkthrough and pre-settlement walkthrough both went really well, but my feet were hurting after standing/walking for so long! We met with our PM on Wednesday for the pre-pre-settlement, where we basically just walked around inspecting every wall, doorframe, floorboard, etc for areas where paint needed to be touched up or other fixes. When we returned for our pre-settlement on Thursday morning, a worker was there correcting all the taped areas and we basically just spent the time going over warranties and how things worked. (kinda boring).
After the walkthrough, we went to Levin's to check out their sofas, and found one that we really liked. We learned that they were having a sale this weekend where there were different tiered discounts based on how much you spent. We went back today to buy our sofa, oversized chair, and ottoman and ended up getting the extra 20% off discount!
Here is the furniture in the floor model color....too light for us! We opted for the second option, which is the fabric on top of the middle of the couch in the picture below:
Unfortunately, the second option color is a special order and isn't stocked in the warehouse. So that means 6-8 weeks until delivery :( Booooo....
In other news, I got a facebook message from India of The Ryan Homes Experience yesterday letting me know she was in Akron visiting her family...so we made plans to meet for coffee today! :) Very fun to meet her and her mom, it's so nice to talk to other people who are building a house--my friends/family are sick of hearing me talk about it but all of the bloggers love talking about it! We talked about how these blogs are exploding and how cool it is that we actually got to meet each other! So neat to make friends with people all over who are going through the same thing!
New friends brought together by Ryan Homes.... aww :)
This is so nice I am so glad you were able to meet each other :)
