Well, bad news on our almost new home. Since I last updated, the home has failed inspection and the seller decided not to take any action to fix the problems. What this means is that we no longer have a home! We decided to walk away from the contract because of the problems with the electrical, gas lines, and sewer in the basement. We are so very glad that we decided to get an inspection. Anyway, we are back to square one and we have no idea what we are going to do. I think we just need a couple of days to think about our options and 'cool off' from this experience. We were very spoiled when we built our last house and we didn't have to deal with these problems.
Again, we will let you all know what our future plans are.
