Today was the day the house became more than just an idea. We got the chance to walk around in it and explore the space. Our building rep went over where all the switches would be, as well as the rough-ins for ceiling fans. Turns out we will have attic space as well. We also noticed a small mistake but turned out to be a good one. Our tv connection was placed on the wrong wall from what we originally wanted. But after looking it over, we actually preferred the location they used (which is what 80% of the homes choose for their tv connection). We asked a lot of questions and they were very helpful. As far as the exterior of the house goes, we got a definite answer to how it will look (more siding than brick). The weather hasn't been the greatest this week so they haven't been able to start siding yet. But we're still on track for a late December close.
