More June debt progress

June 3rd, 2014 at 09:01 pm

The US mortgage hit, with $478 going to principal. So that brings me to $789 down, $111 to go on the June debt goal.

The house deal is still pending; we've sent the formal offer in and are waiting for the seller to respond. It's pretty much what they asked for in their counter offer, so it's likely they will accept, but you never know until it happens. Emotions are high right now but I'm trying to look at everything from the numbers side.

If seller accepts, we'll schedule an inspection in the next week and probably close at the end of July!

We're still waiting on estimates from our first contractor, who has been swamped at work. Now we have another contractor coming over Monday who comes very highly recommended by a co-worker, so we'll see what he says.

    How exciting to move the process forward.so quickly. We found it helpful to use a 'D' ring binder with a few packages of page protectors to keep track of product samples, contractors estimates, lists of improvements/changes for planned upgrades/changes and the order of what needs to be done so that we don't get tripped up missing a needed tool, product or trades. It helps to identify what tasks are reasonably DIY, which might be learned with You Tube help and which requires trades specialist. You'll need lead time to get 3 bids on a specific tasks.

    Do you have friends who would be willing/able to help? Space to store boxes of items that can be packed now and shifted in someone's truck/SUV? During transition we pretended we were camping, kept only minimal needed day-by day. you could shift winter stuff, holiday decorations, file cabinets, books, records, anything in secondary storage etc.
