Book It, Danno! This One's Done.

Today was the day.  We Closed on the purchase of Lot 62 and on the Construction Loan.  We are now lot-owners in Covington, Louisiana USA, and in a few days, our lot will show signs of transformation into a home.  And we will be pleased.

It’s hard to believe, but the ‘For Sale’ sign went up May 15^th and 10 days later, we had an offer.  We countered the offer one day later, and they accepted.  Their purchase would be in cash.

On the 11^th day, the house was considered ‘sold.’ 

Only 19 days later, June 14^th, we closed and were totally moved from our home of 29 years. 

By the end of the day we had driven 354 miles and were moving into a temporary rental house in Covington, Louisiana, approximately 2 miles from where our future home would be built. 

Total time at that point – 30 days. 

And today, June 29^th, on the 45^th day, we closed on both the lot purchase and the construction loan.  We are done with all we can do over the next five or six months.  Now we just wait for the builder to build it.

45 Days isn’t bad at all.  I hope the next 175 days goes as quickly.
