The land is locked down!

We have another victory in the building process! The land has been closed on by our builder and we have a tentative start time for mid March! We are beyond excited about this. It has taken forever, I mean FOREVER, for the land to get settled. Greg and I are not patient people and really thought that closing on the land should be the easy part. Little did we know there could be so many delays from our builder and his bank. We are so happy it is done now though! Greg drove past the land yesterday and proudly displayed is the Amberwood Construction sign. I just smile thinking about it :)

We have plans to meet our builder out at the land in the next week or two to pin the house on the site and show us the exact footprint of it on our land. So glad we are gonna do this, but we are nervous about it too. Our builder is doing a similar floor plan that we have been keeping up with in another area of West Knoxville, and the house seems so big! Could it fit on our land? Will we have the yard we want too? It seems so hard right now to visualize this house on our land. Conceptually I  know it will fit and give us a nice yard, but  right now it's so hard to actually "see" it. So hopefully after we meet with our builder, Greg and I will have a little more clarity and confidence! We decided to go for this piece of land in an existing subdivision at the back on the cul de sac, because it was our perfect location. It might not be perfect for other people. But for us it is. However, both Greg and I never really thought we would be subdivision people, so this is a little nerve racking. We know it will all be ok in the end, but we have these moments of doubt where we think, "did we make the right decision?" I think this is probably pretty normal but still us non subdivision people sometimes worry ya know. I think it would be weirder if we didn't, or at least that's what I tell myself :) Even with the worry, we are so happy to begin this process! Be on the lookout for our design choices to begin. Ready or not we are building the dream Knoxville!!!
