The journey begins

January 2014, Land purchased (Deposit)

February 2014, Met with Wisdom Homes (Colt), We were looking at Wisdom and Eden Brae. Eden Brae had set build months which we did not like. This was a good thing as we really like the Wisdom home quality and designs.

February 2014, Decided on a Wisdom home (wife loved the Manhattan 52), We were tossing up between the Ambassador and the Manhattan. Met with Colt again and decided on the Manhattan, party due to the size of the Manhattan and the cost of changes needed to increase the Ambassador to over 50sq. Colt drew up all the adjustments to windows and doors etc. We also added the additional estimated costs of the extras we knew we wanted at the time.

May 2014, Signed Wisdom Tender

May 2014, Land Registered

June 2014, Land Settled

We are now working through all the choices we have to make for each of the meetings we go to once the plans come back and we sign build contracts. We are looking forward to seeing what the additional costs will be based on our upgrades at each of the meetings.

Now we wait for the next phone call to advise that the plans are ready!
