Should get our keys the 27th!

All advice I’ve heard on walkthroughs has been, “Be super picky.” You can find checklists for stuff to look for online, e.g., http://coolthingstoremember.blogspot.com/2006/09/new-home-walk-through-checklist.html

Good luck with the home stretch!

We don’t close until 8/31. Give us a post on how the walk-through goes, as I dont quite know what to expect with regard them saying: “Well, all the cabinets get scratched up….” =P

We’re actually doing our walkthrough tomorrow … and we close the following Thursday. My wife snuck in last week and mentioned that everything, flooring included, seemed to be done (save for some cleaning).

Enjoy your new home — we’ll see you ’round the neighborhood. And please feel free to drop by and say “hi” when you get a chance.

I saw a link to this post on a housing forum i frequent. My wife and I have a home in the same phase. I checked out the house progress yesterday – they have everything done and most of the flooring in. Its exciting.
