We Just Scheduled a Pre-Construction Meeting!

Hello!  I'm back!  Well it is almost a year to the day that my husband and I first signed a contract with Ryan Homes to purchase a new home in a small development called Montgomery Crossing.  If you have followed this blog, and I know there are one or two of you exactly that have, you know that our house was originally slated to be finished in October 2015.  But it turned out that despite what Ryan Homes initially told us (and what they say they understood) the developer did not have permit approval to build the road and infrastructure to be able to build homes on the land.  So our house was not started last year.  In fact it took the developer eight months to get such approval.  But after that very long wait, which included angry phone calls, and additional funds towards closing, we are finally getting started.

Hooray!  We are going to our pre-construction meeting this month and our house is scheduled to begin construction in mid-June.  We are beyond thrilled.  But until I see a big hole in the ground, I'm not celebrating quite yet, but this is definitely progress.

  1. Congratulations! I just found your blog! Your sentiments are just like my hubster. He doesn't get excited until he sees something happening. We started last in August 2015 and we will be breaking ground next week and expecting the house materials delivery in mid-June too. We just had a 2nd construction meeting. Please feel free to join our journey at ourlangelytwo.blogspot.com We sold our Rome and that blog is ricknadase.blogspot.com

  4. Inam glad that construction will begin on your house soon. I am glad to run across your blog.
    I think it depends on which people within Ryan Homes people deal with. I am building outside of Richmond, VA. We signed our contract in early January 2016 and broke ground about 2 months later. So far, things are moving smoothly. We are supposed to close mid-June.
