Yesterday was a pretty busy day for us....
At 10:30 we had an appointment to see 2 possible rental properties. We met with a woman who had 2 apartments to rent out, and then as we were talking to her it turns out she may also have a condo to rent out. We're waiting to hear back from her on the condo, but we put in an application and security deposit that should give us the first choice of any of the two (or three) units once our application goes through on Monday.
This complex is a nice place; it's set back in its own little development area so there's very little traffic other than the people who live in one of the units and the property manager lives in one of the units and she knows everyone there by first name, so it's pretty safe/secure there as well.
We finished up with that appointment just in time to make our noon appointment with the exterior door/window supplier. With our new home now slated to be a Parade home we were able to get some free upgrades (upgraded hardware finishes and the dividers) from the window supplier, which is very nice.
We were able to get all the selections figured out for the windows (trim color, hardware color, window style {all casement style}, and that the little dividers in the windows will be between the panes of glass {versus removable interior units}).
The only thing we didn't decide on yet was the style/color/finish of the front entry door and the sidelights that go with it. We have a few weeks before that needs to be ordered.
Next up is our appointment with the plumbing fixture supplier. The first thing he'll need us to decide on is the "framing items"; bathtubs, etc., so he can get them ordered and the framers will be able to see exactly the dimensions they need to frame around.
Busy, busy, busy!
