Let there be light!

Our lamp post

Our lamp post

Oooh this is getting exciting.

So today we had our final sales consultation out at Point Cook and got our written sales quote - still not too scary. And while we were there, let’s face it, we couldn’t help ourselves, we went for a drive by the block - and guess what? A lamp post has grown since we were last there, as well as leveled land, more markings and posts. So this lamp post is on Wiley way, and about halfway into our block - good things (lighting) and bad things (well, lighting too) go with that, but at least will make it easier to find, even if it ruins our aesthetic beauty. But at least it’s a funky looking lamp post. And if the lighting is anything like that of other estates, excess light won’t really be too much of a problem.

Our View

Our View

So, after taking that photo, I turned and looked to the otherside of the road, and that is our view. For the moment, at least. Featherbrook estate is going up on the left, and that will no doubt soon be houses too, but in the meantime we have some farmland to look at. And no, it’s not that far from the city.

We also found out today that if the title comes through as predicted (June 09), construction could start not long after that and we could potentially be in before Christmas - maybe 70% chance of that happening. So we’re putting it out there for our first Christmas in our new home. So… about those housewarming presents…

Exciting days!

Save the trees!

I can’t believe how much paperwork  is needed when applying for a mortgage - especially because I work for myself.  Marty didn’t need to gather as much.  There must be some more environmentally friendly way of doing it.  Seriously with the technology available these days why can’t it all be done electronically?

Hopefully all the trees they chopped down from our block of land went to a good cause!
