Bringing you up to speed...

So, I've been reading all of the blogs about people having Ryan Homes build their houses and I was inspired to start my own.  To catch everyone up to where we are now:

Back on September 16th we signed our purchaser's agreement with Ryan Homes to build their Florence model (three bedrooms, two and a half baths [minus the bathroom which be in our basement once we have it finished later] with the morning room and the loft) in Moraine, Ohio.  We opted not to have Ryan Homes finish the basement since they would only finish half of the space and leave the rest of the space as unfinished storage and I would rather wait and have it finished by another company so that we can use the entire space for entertaining (hopefully a bar and home theater).  We have picked out our flooring(beige carpet, linoleum in the bathrooms, kitchen, and the entryway), tile accent colors (almond), cabinets (42" oak), counter tops (Butter Rum), and appliances (all black with the refrigerator, and vented microwave).  We opted for the gourmet island in the Kitchen and the bathroom upgrade with the separate glass-enclosed shower and soaking tub in the master bathroom.  We added overhead lighting in the morning room (ceiling fan) and all of the bedrooms, an automatic garage door opener w/ two remotes (thanks to the suggestion from our sales rep), and an alarm monitoring system provided by Guardian.  We picked our outer color scheme (red door, black shutters, and almond siding).

That is were we are at this point until we find out more information at our pre-construction meeting on Oct 31st.  Our house is scheduled to begin construction on November 5th and be completed by the end of January 2013.

We have have a great experience with Ryan Homes thus far and we are super excited to start the construction part of the process...
