Not sure if this is a Ryan thing or not? Or mortgage companies after NVR sells them?<br /><br /> As we all know when you build new they can only assess your land.<br /><br /> But I thought Ryan still look care of that is the estimate? We were even told OVER estimated.<br /><br /> Last year our mortgage was on point, in fact this time last year got a nice chunk back from our escrow overages. Hmmm I wondered about that. Well this year, diff story. Our 2nd year here.<br /><br /><br /> We owe thousands into our escrow along with a jump in our mortgage amount even with paying for the escrow shortage forecasted for next year.<br /><br /> You may ask were we re assessed higher? NO<br /><br /> Did your taxes increase? YES but not this significant amount reflected in what we owe for the upcoming year.<br /><br /> PennyMac is who NVR sold us out to, they have admitted to making a mistake and knocked off a considerable amount due from our escrow shortage. But its still a LARGE amount due OR your mortgage jumps up a SHIT TON instead over the next 12 months.<br /><br /> PEOPLE WATCH WHATS GOING ON WITH THESE "estimates of mortgage and taxes"!!<br /><br /> Anybody else have a noticeable jump in escrow shortages?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="clear: both;">

Hi- pretty new to your blog (found it scouring the internet looking for info on our home building process. Not too many Courtland Gate Blogs floating around :) Expected to close in late March) This is what I know based on my mortgage from my current home:<br /><br />I would ask them to itemize the increases for your escrow. And then compare to your municipality taxes, your HOA and your home insurance. I would also make note if the shortage this year is EQUAL to the overage of last year. Your mortgage should be pretty consistent unless you have 2/1 ARM (which the lowest I have seen was a 5/1)</div>

If it has to do with taxes, Ryan has no control of this, or the mortgage company. This is all controlled by the taxing body of the municipality or county and they determine when the increase goes into effect. </div>

Funny you posted this DW. I just got a letter, we are through PennyMac too and it said we are short, but only a couple hundred. What's weird, even though they are saying we are short, our new monthly mortgage for 2015 will be about 600 bucks cheaper. I'm completely confused about this and will be calling on Monday.</div>

Me again, your post made me pull out NVR calculation worksheet that was handed to us during our loan application. This is what is says verbatim:<br /><br />PLEASE NOTE: Your first escrow analysis may show a significant overage if it was based on the payment of taxes on land only or on a partial or interim tax in the first year. If you withdraw the overage and reduce your monthly escrow payment it will result in a significant shortage and a substantial increase in monthly payment the next year.<br /><br />Do you think this happened to you? </div>

LC<br /><br />Thanks for the input.<br /><br />Yes we got money back last year because apparently mortgage co. cannot hold onto that much money. they have to give it back, but at the time you are thinking........wooo hooo!! Lets just use some rough numbers. last year say we got back $1000. This year we owe $2000. So its not a complete balance out, but looking back we should have put aside the $1000 to off set the $2000 owed this year (again rough numbers)<br /><br />Last year our mortgage went down $100,, this year when we PAY the escrow shortage the mortgage goes up $100, so its a wash there, and back where we were originally. (But you get excited about the decrease and think it MAY stay there for a little while :(..)<br /><br />Also though, keep in mind Penny Mac screwed up a bit and like a said lessened our escrow owed ALOT. Dont see how that happened. I guess had we not questioned it, we would have gotten back a SHIT TON again at the end of next year. Vicious cycle.<br /><br />AnyHOW. Hope to anyone out here reading building now, just to be aware of this and be prepared.<br /><br />And NO... <br />No reassessment<br />Our homeowners is NOT in our mortgage<br />Sure our taxes went up a little bit.</div>

We have pennymac too, and i even I anticipated being short on escrow once they refunded $2500 back to us. I called once i got the refund (since they were basing on the pre-house taxes on the land), and they advised that they couldn't hold excess money until they got a revised tax bill from the county. The service agent did advise i can send in an extra 50-100/month back into escrow without triggering a refund so a big lump sum wouldnt' be due to escrow once the tax bill came.<br /><br />Low and behold, i get the new tax bill that's fairly close to NVR's estimation, fax it over to their escrow department and what do they do? send me a refund on escrow! i got a letter about a week after that saying i had insufficient funds to pay the bill and they would be collecting the needed amount over the next 12 months or I could just pay a lump sum. We get significant tax breaks years 1-4 since our house is leed certified, so i expect another jump in year 5.</div>

Danielle, ya it seems it comes down to this damn separation of land and building, and when your county catches up it seems. I dont think its ryan related. We dont have PMI or home owners in our mortgage either. so it simplifies even more. thanks for the input. Happy Holidays</div>

Thanks for posting this - and frankly this scares the hell out of me now. <br />We just got a huge chunk of change back from our external mortgage company. Not gonna lie - I'm still super happy that I used my own lender and closing company and now have a mortgage company that has no ties to Ryan/NVR/Heartland. <br />BUT - we did just get a huge check from escrow overages and this is the same exact thing that I was concerned about when we got the check. Come this time next year,..../sigh</div>

HEY OWEN, yup first year happened to us as well, nice chunk of change we got back from escrow, the following year we owed back thousands and mortgage went up 2015, and now 2016 our escrow is short again by thousands we owe and mortgage goes up.<br /><br />I just don't get it, its been our 3rd year now.<br /><br />Again<br />Taxes only went up a few hundred<br />I do not have a PMI<br />and my home insurance is separate from my mortgage.<br /><br />What gives? I think PennyMac is a mess, or im just really stupid.</div>

<br />
We finally did it, we needed scaffolding as the ceiling is approx, 15 feet tall, I believe, and is a 16x20 in length and wide, a large area.<br />
<br />
We wanted the underneath to have a rich design to it so we opted to do it ourselves.<br />
<br />
We needed 70 planks of 12 foot sections of pine, tongue and groove, and we stained and clear coated each and every one of those suckers, took much longer than anticipated. OH, and be sure to do this BEFORE YOU INSTALL ON THE CEILING.<br />
<br />
Also installed a ceiling fan, mainly to keep the bugs away.<br />
<br />
Also installed AZEK crown molding, and inside the crown molding is LED rope lights that have like 16 vary of colors and chase each other too, and its so pretty. Such an awesome look and we are so happy the outside area is finally done :)WE got those at Costco for a steal.<br />
<br />
Well landscaping is never really DONE in my eyes, I just love to play in the dirt and plants lots of stuff.<br />
<br />
My photo skillz have dropped off and pics aren't as clear from beginning to end, but your get the jist of it. Here are a ton of pics, and some misc updated pics of our home.<br />
<br />
I have an unbelievable husband with super manskillz, always so proud of him :)<br />

I DID! PICS.When they built our home, we asked RH to save the left over brick, my gosh there was so much left and they pretty much just through it away if you don't ask.<br />
<br />
ASK FOR YOUR BRICK!<br />
<br />
There is soooooooooooooo much you can do with it.<br />
<br />
We built a matching mailbox. If not that, a walkway in your yard or flower box or something :)<br />
<br />
Love it!!<br />
<br />
First ones in our neighborhood to do it, lets see if I have any followers...I hope so, such a nicer look.<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In our community our lots are <u><b>not</b></u> huge.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you want to build a shed it must be 15 feet off your property line.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">That does not work for most of us in our plan.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">3 of us neighbors in a row ...got together and had the Amish build our sheds attached to our homes............all in a row..LOL...within in days!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The name of the company that did it is an Amish Crew.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><u>MNW Construction</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><u>5950 South Windsor Road</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><u>Middlefield Ohio 44062</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><u>Mark Wengert</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><u>440-321-9434</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can call them during business hours, do not call on weekends.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They have a very LARGE working area, so if you live in PA, OHIO, W. V. give it a try maybe.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It is the same group who did our patio roof and are very happy with their work.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We love how it turned out, we all did something slightly different. I won't take pics of their homes for obvious reasons. But Mark is awesome at listening to your ideas and will give his own as well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here are before and after pics, dont mind the clutter, that has to go in shed, I have not updated pics.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Everyone keeps asking about price point. I rather not display that info, but folks it was CHEAPER than a free standing shed!! You will be surprised at the pricing of this company.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Footers poured on afternoon, next afternoon job was COMPLETE.</span><br />

I asked hubby if this could be my "garden room", I guess I'll get a "small" section, we will see just where this section is...LOL...back right corner under the circular saw right?..LOL.<br /><br />So..I am thinking about making a small path with stone( or pavers) from the patio to the door on the other side and putting small landscaping in front of the shed along the pathway. Any thoughts you guys?</span></td></tr>

(it's the small things in life)We are on some of those finishing touches in our DIY finished basement.<br />
<br />
I begged hubby to give me a nice "walk in ish" type of closet in the basement, even though it took away from his "bar area" to build me this closet, but really.........."what's more important?".<br />
<br />
Our pantry in our kitchen is nonexistent. Although if I stopped going to COSTCO this may not pose such an issue.<br />
<br />
LIKE HOW DID WE GET ALL THIS STUFF???? And I'm no pack rat, I throw away EVERYTHING!<br />
<br />
Anywhoo, I know this is not super exciting for ya'll but I wanted to share anyhow :)<br />

Here are some pics, I have tapped off what would be the size of the two propellers I am thinking about ordering online. <br />

I dont have vision when they are NOT in front of me, please give me any thoughts if this will work at all??? Because these are custom made and dont think they can be returned. Please be honest.<br />

<br />
NEVER STOP IMPROVING.<br />
<br />
That's us, we just cant keep still.<br />
<br />
This was by far the EASIEST, FASTEST project in our home yet. Tiled on a friday night in 4.5 hours.<br />
<br />
Saturday grouted, wiped down, let stand over night, wiped down again Sunday AM. DONE :)<br />
<br />
We have granite countertops and we HAD the granite backsplash. Well the granite backsplash HAD to come off, it actually comes off pretty easy, with a putty knife and crow bar.<br />
<br />
We did NOT damage our walls, but couldn't really save the granite, it cracked into a few various pieces. But we didnt want it anywayz.<br />
<br />
Here are some pics of my NEW BLING. WE LOVE IT.<br />

Ahhh love my new bling! It's my christmas Jewelry.dwtimes2http://www.blogger.com/profile/03857644857162128353noreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3403585995466606276.post-23811691748505300962014-11-22T06:58:00.001-08:002015-11-21T05:29:39.110-08:00Annual Escrow Disclosure Time - Will your mortgage go up postbuild????Not sure if this is a Ryan thing or not? Or mortgage companies after NVR sells them?<br />
<br />
As we all know when you build new they can only assess your land.<br />
<br />
But I thought Ryan still look care of that is the estimate? We were even told OVER estimated.<br />
<br />
Last year our mortgage was on point, in fact this time last year got a nice chunk back from our escrow overages. Hmmm I wondered about that. Well this year, diff story. Our 2nd year here.<br />
<br />
<br />
We owe thousands into our escrow along with a jump in our mortgage amount even with paying for the escrow shortage forecasted for next year.<br />
<br />
You may ask were we re assessed higher? NO<br />
<br />
Did your taxes increase? YES but not this significant amount reflected in what we owe for the upcoming year.<br />
<br />
PennyMac is who NVR sold us out to, they have admitted to making a mistake and knocked off a considerable amount due from our escrow shortage. But its still a LARGE amount due OR your mortgage jumps up a SHIT TON instead over the next 12 months.<br />
<br />
PEOPLE WATCH WHATS GOING ON WITH THESE "estimates of mortgage and taxes"!!<br />
<br />
Anybody else have a noticeable jump in escrow shortages?<br />
<br />

<br />
WE always wanted to finish the basement on our own.<br />
<br />
We know we would get more from our layout than Ryan could ever give us.<br />
<br />
We made a game room, (movie room, no games here) bar area, laundry room and full bath.<br />
<br />
We are currently in the home stretch of finishing it up.<br />
<br />
Its tough work, long work, when only two people work on it, but totally worth it<br />
<br />
***Our bar area we will prob do some time next year, so this area is just "prepped".<br />
<br />
We are finishing our tile in our shower now.<br />
<br />
We had to move our rough ins, they were not properly placed, people make sure your rough ins are correct, its a real bitch to move them on your own.<br />
<br />
Framing is actually the easiest part.<br />
<br />
We hired drywallers. We had to, that would have taken months, they fully did it in 6 days start to finish, money well spent. Only people we hired, proud of ourselves.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Hi all!!<br />
<br />
Haven't been around for awhile. We have been FINISHING OUR BASEMENT BY OURSELVES! Gesh, it has taken months. I will post more of that LATER, because I had to share the most favorite thing we have EVER done<u><b> inside </b></u>the HOUSE.<br />
<br />
It's all the rage, <b><i><u>RECLAIMED WOOD. </u></i></b><br />
<br />
What can you do with it???<br />
<br />
You name it you can do it. BUT you have to find<u> REAL Authentic Barn Wood</u>. Which is not easy to find in good condition. So I creeped on Craiglist for weeks to finally find someone only 10 min away from us. We do live all around farmland, so this guy had knocked down a real barn and knew he could sell the planks.<br />
<br />
I hand picked each one. It took awhile, but I wanted character in each one :)<br />
<br />

Hubby was super patient with me as he was NOT as excited as I do this project. At first I was going to do a Pallet Wall, turned out that is a real pain in the ass to disassemble and stain those, so I was determined to do Reclaimed Barn Wood. (btw, hubby loves as much as I do)<br />
<br />
Here is before. (loving a finished basement by the way, do another post later.)<br />

First make sure you first board is level, and it helps that all boards are pretty much the same width.<br />

Find those studs to nail into, just into the drywall and the boards are going to pop back out at you.<br />
<br />
Now I back peddle a bit....., I had read to paint the wall behind black or put of some type of board up. Totally NOT necessary. You cannot see the paint/wall between the boards at all. Hubby was right on that one. :) OK, OK, he usually is....in DIY projects that is.<br />

<br />
Been battling Ryan Homes for a long time to get the front of my house to stop leaking.<br />
<br />
I think its been a year now.<br />
<br />
Been in my home over 1.5 years.<br />
<br />
My fypon, front door, window above door and my study window leak into my home.<br />
<br />
All I do is get the run around, a patch job here, a patch job there, more ordering of shit here and there, weeks pass by and another bandaid is applied.<br />
<br />
Ive had plastic...........yes plastic on my foyer window for a month now to keep out the water because the window just aint in YET.............Did you really order the freaking thing???<br />
<br />
Transom window replace 3x.<br />
<br />
Front door replaced 1x.<br />
<br />
Numerous attempts of replacing window sills and casing to see if that STOPS the problem!!!!!<br />
<br />
All I over hear is.......<br />
<br />
WE ARE SO BUSY<br />
<br />
WE ARE SO BACKED UP<br />
<br />
WE ARE SO OVERWHELMED!<br />

UPDATE ON 8-24-2014<br />
They are saying my upper window and fypon are in and we are trying to schedule a day. I get it all done in two days. They are also painting my entire 2 story foyer the color of my choice, so that was a nice perk. We are looking at maybe mid Sept of course, but I hope its forward progress on the front of my home. :)<br />

<br />
There are some things still going on with the house from our 10 month yet.<br />
<br />
I will blog about it later but big projects to accomplish yet :(<br />
<br />
One of my most popular posts was the attached shed to the house last year.<br />
<br />
We have been in the house for 1.5 years now and all of my followers on this blog are long gone.<br />

<br />
I keep telling myself if I dont have anything nice to say.<br />
<br />
There just has been A LOT going on with my 10 month inspection and things getting done over and over and over again. Why cant things be done right the first or second time?<br />
<br />
Heaven knows the guys they send TRY, they do, really do, but they just dont have the skill set.<br />
<br />
And its just not RH fellow bloggers, its all builders, I have 3 friends that have 3 other builders, one is a very custom builder and still same issues, I think it's just customer service now a days. Bigger, Faster, more work, more hours, less pay, less personal attention to all details.<br />
<br />
I will write more later with more detail but.....<br />
<br />
Front door still takes on water.<br />
<br />
Lawn still floods<br />
<br />
Master bed and bath still freezing<br />
<br />
Gutter still leaks<br />
<br />
OK I said I would write more detail later, but really who wants to hear it anywayz? Ha ha ha, so I digress, off the Soap Box, be back later with more uplifting news :) and progress.<br />
<br />
Till then..............<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With working and just having a life, progress has slowed down a bit.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But we still make a little bit of progress here and there.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had decided to made a partial railing at the bottom of the basement steps to open it up a bit, instead of two solid walls on the way down into the basement.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had thought about opening it more, but afraid of too much sound traveling, I am still on the fence with this one, we can easily go more....but? IDK. Any thoughts bloggers? Below you will find two pics. One a smaller railing and one bigger.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wow, is it fun to take a sledge hammer and knock down a wall :)</span><br />

So exciting, it's like building all over again, and this time YOU are the PM, so you know stuff is done level and RIGHT every time, it's a good feeling AND you get to put your "stuff" wherever you want! I am so glad we went with this option to build unfinished basement.<br />
<br />
Now carrying 85 pieces or drywall to the basement will be a real joy!!!<br />
<br />
The rough ins, were well................rough!! They ended up being a bout a foot off for the "plans" so we had to dig them up ourselves and move them in order to fit a bathroom. The toilet would have been about 4 inches from the wall! And the toilet would have been in the shower. Folks some things are not worth the fight so we have a concrete saw and sledge hammer and took on the job.<br />
<br />
PLEASE MEASURE YOUR ROUGH INS AND MAKE SURE THE ARE CORRECT :)<br />
<br />
My basement will now consist of:<br />
Movie Room<br />
8-9 foot BAR with TV and with sitting area. We will build the bar ourselves.<br />
2 storage closets (Hubby hates them :( ) Hey I'm cutting into his BAR space.<br />
Full 3 piece bath<br />
Laundry area just for ME.<br />
<br />
You want to talk about reconfigurating you basement. Gesh! Moving washer and dryer and gas line and vents and piping and laundry tub and running new duct work! But we did it all ourselves, my Hubby is Mr. Manskillz.<br />
<br />
After this comes ELECTRICAL......oh boy, then the slow down begins!<br />

IN OTHER 10 MONTH REVIEW NEWS.<br />
<br />
So SOME floor creaks are addressed other is NOT. The one pop/creak in the foyer just won't go away, they have tackled it from the upstairs and pulled up subfloor only to make it worse and needed another day to fix the "fix".<br />
<br />
This NEW fix comes next week where they tear into my living wall to see what going on in the ceiling that way. Oh boy :(<br />
<br />
We still need a new transition piece for the front door, it has been many attempts to stop the air from blowing in through the door, now we are at ordering and new transition piece, the one that goes under the door when you close it.<br />

Also some more settling has occurred. You just have to wonder what if they didnt used these types of companies who do drywall for a living all the time instead of re-doing over so much of other workers work.

I feel like I have lived here for a very long time :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I've gotten to know a few of my neighbors very well and have formed some solid relationships and I am thrilled to have these new people in our lives.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We are still in our 10 month inspection, the biggest thing has been fixing these damn creaking floors. Rusmur comes out on Monday to start pulling up a lot of carpeting to get to these creaks! Urggh.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well in a year we have accomplished A LOT!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But we don't know how to sit still and love a challenging DIY project.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next..........................drum roll............finished BASEMENT! Woo Hoo.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We have started the process and we are moving along.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have lots of ideas, let's see of the wallet can handle it as time carries on.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We will be doing a movie/family room, bar and sitting area/laundry room, and full bath. ***wipe sweat from brow**</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Do you have any idea how creative you have to be do design and re route all that "crap" in the basement, like moving washer and dryers and drop sinks and what not.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Not to mention digging up the basement floor because the bath rough in is incorrect, well let me say this properly "was designed for a tub not a shower"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But it's been challenging figuring out how to hide electrical panel and water shut off's and pipe cleanouts and yet have full access, and where to build walls.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here are some pics so far.</span><br />

Never was a huge fan of the "letters".<br />
<br />
My Auntie comes in for Thanksgiving and buys me this frame collage for a wall, I say myself I'll try it in the bedroom. Then I have an idea about the "letters", I take myself out to Hobby Lobby and get me some LETTERS to go with the frames. And you know what, it's one my absolute favorite things in the home. Thanks Auntie and bloggers for one of my favorite walls! Everytime I walk past it I smile :)<br />

After our 10 month drywall inspection we PAINTED!! I had no idea I was in a prison of Antique White!<br />
<br />
We have managed to paint our living room, morning room, kitchen and hallway, NOT the foyer yet, that is massive!<br />
<br />
When you do ceilings white, and accents walls this house sure needs a lot of "cutting in"! BEFORE:<br />

WOW what a difference! I can't believe I went with RED! Brick Dust and a Taupe color! I decided on an accent wall, I was afraid to paint entire morning room red, so instead I did another accent wall to tie it in....<br />

At 10 month, Rusmur replacing some boards at front door. Now I thought there was padding between the hardwood and the OSB? There isnt! And there isn't padding attached to board either. Shouldn't there be? No wonder the floors are cold and creaking? HGTV doesn't install that way!<br />

UNTIL.............<br />
<br />
the cracking and popping floors were NOT easy fixes as I thought!<br />
<br />
CRAP!<br />
<br />
The one in the loft, they need to rip apart the ceiling and wall in the living room. SIGH! Oh gesh!<br />
<br />
Bonus side to this is...........<br />
<br />
That is where all the piping runs from the upstairs bathroom to the basement, hence lots of noise SO, when they open it up, we are wrapping those pipes to SHUT IT UP! That's the plan anyway, we will see how it goes down.<br />
<br />
I know there were a few bloggers that insulated their pipes to prevent sound? Anybody out there?<br />
<br />
The other popping is in our master, they cant figure it out, they tried driving like 16 screws in through the carpeting....URGGHH, to no avail. So NOW they must pull up the carpeting, now this area has 3 seams, count em' . Lets see how this works out and makes the seams worse!<br />
<br />
Its funny at your 10 month, it takes like a year to fix this stuff.<br />
<br />
It goes like this...<br />
<br />
People show up, find shit wrong then you have to wait for them to come back, btw is weeks upon weeks for each thing wrong!<br />
<br />
Now my drywall guys were GREAT! H&M Company, wow were they professional and know their stuff, they were really good, really fast and efficient! Good Company. They took care of all my pops and seams, the owner of the co. did the seams and you cant see the repair, I'm impressed!<br />
<br />
The 10 month "punch out" guy, who doesnt consider himself a punch out guy, took him all damn day to do two window ledges and some touch ups, went home for lunch for an hour and a half, which was so weird to me :) At this snails pace gonna take forever!<br />
<br />

<br />
Hence my pathetic Xmas tree :( I looks so tiny. Now I'm NOT done with it yet, but I'm uninspired since nothing I do with make it .......well....bigger!<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There I said it!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My newest addition is a find from Kirkland's for our living room wall.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I try and go weekly to there and Home Goods to catch the latest deal.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This addition cost me $32..yup $32! Cha Ching!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's tough finding BIG pieces to cover these walls that are cheap and match.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now I just don't know if I go with a gray paint or sage?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">(btw hate my furniture, but somehow trying to make it work)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I need something in that corner (a cheap fix) not sure what though, so my weekly adventures with my mom continues...shout out to my MOM, she is my BFF and partner in crime!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">On another note, the drywallers from H&M were here yesterday and got half of the nails pops and seams done in the home. Another day will be scheduled for the other half of the home. They seemed very professional and very clean guys. I love that when they sanded the wall they actually held a shop vac under to minimize sand dust :) And they vacummed and wiped, oh yes wiped, the floors when they were done too. I'm pleased.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Oh the do the fixing and sanding and also paint as well in case anyone was wondering.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They fixed all the areas I had taped without question.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The walls they worked on seem to look in pretty good shape now. Living room is done and I'm itching to paint it! Only prob is taking down the damn monster of a TV! urghh!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now what's odd is that my 10 month repairs have started but I have yet to meet with the guy handling them...IDK. Our meeting is on Nov. 18th. The dry wall was our biggest issue.</span><br />
