Saw Art today, and he said that the surveyors finally got out and surveyed the lot last week. It took them 3 months to come out and survey one acre, but only one day to send a bill.
Ugh.
We're going to see banks this coming week — hopefully they'll give us some real answers about how the loan process works. We've decided to cut the printing studio out of the plans for now; it looks like we're going to need to scale back the plans a bit in order to make building the house affordable.
Art also told us that now the county has decided to let us officially split the lot WITHOUT the road improvements. This seems to be 180 degrees from what they've been saying for the last 2 years. We still have to do the road improvements, but they're holding the building permits until the road improvements are made. This means that we should be able to put the road improvement costs ($17,000+) on our mortgage, but it may slow the initiation of the house building process.
Well, with the baby coming sooner than we realize, slowing down the house may not be a bad thing. A friend noted today that I seem really relaxed about things, and she thought it might be the pregnancy hormones. I think I'm just so tired of stressing out that I don't give a crap about a lot of things anymore.
