29 April

Signed lots of papers for the lot today.

NOW the only thing that will stop this project is that we wont get permission to build, and that is very unlikely.

The contract says that the lot will be ours 14 days after we get the permission. We want that to be tomorrow so that we can start using the lot. The seller at the house firm thinks that will be before 30 of June, the realtor think it will before 1 of September, our contract says it has to happen before the 1 of October.

So now we have to speed up things so that something will happen.

Finns det något avvänjningsprogram för hemnet.se användare???
Vanans makt är stor, men det är ju bara dumt att surfa omkring där nu. Man vill ju inte hitta något bättre nu. Fast det är nog svårt att hitta något bättre. En lika mysig tomt men närmare allmänna kommunikationer in till Göteborg i så fall.

Papers and brochures is all over our place. It is hard to focus on one thing at the time. But we made some progress and have made some decisions.

I
n Sweden most people settle for a garage with room for one or two cars. Garage for three cars does not exists, at least it is very rare. It is not like driving on Alcosta Blvd towards San Ramon (from Dublin) in Cali where most houses have three car ports.

We will only park one car in the garage and are planning to have an isolated storage room added. We are not sure this plan over where to place the garage will work out. We asked our contact at Myresjöhus today and he is going to look in to it.


Other than that we have figured out some solutions for the inside, we are planning for one more walk-in closet. The Kitchen will probably be smaller and with an island. The dinning area we plan to move to the livingroom.

27 April



Myresjöhus sålde tomten och därmed hade vi inga valmöjligheter när det gäller husleverantör. Modellen som vi med största sannolikhet kommer att bygga heter Tenor. Det var den som inom vår budget passar våra önskemål bäst. Bilderna ovan är standardutförandet och det kommer givetvis bli ändringar både extriört och interiört.

This is the house we are planning to build, with some modifications of course.
All our time goes to thinking about this, we have to decide how it is going to look on the inside, on the outside, plan the kitchen and the bathrooms, how to place the house on the lot and so on.There is so many choices to make right now so we are afraid to forget something important.

It is not only the interior and exterior on the house, there is lots of more boring stuff like heating and water to consider. All this would have been pretty easy if money were not a limitation. Today we are going to a showroom to check out some options.

25 April

Point of No return, was not totally true.
There might be a way out... if we really want too.

Today we got an offer we had to check out since the location on this new lot where so much better than the one we already signed up for.
Luckily that trip only made us sure we already have made the right choice the first time. The nice feeling on our lot (to be) is hard to beat. We cant wait to move in... But first we need a house!

We also went back to our lot (to be), this time we took the long way and walked up where our own road will be. We had to do some climbing over the rocks but this will be our entrance later. We wont use this entrance again until the road is finished, there is a back road to get to the lot as well and that will be good enough for now.



A seemed to love the place as much as us and found some new friends at once.


I think we can get used to this view in the evenings.

We will post more pics of the actual lot later. On the lot is an ,old not so beautiful, little house that been used as a summer home.

Point of no return!
Avtal med husleverantör tecknat.

I guess this is the best anniversary present I will get from Jonas (and the only one). We signed the papers for our first house today on our third wedding anniversary. Today C is turning 4 months too.
