Holy Crap! Did We Just Sign a Contract to Buy That House?

Welcome to the online chronicle of Michael and Shannon’s first home purchase. I thought this would be a good way to keep our families and friends apprised of the status of the construction, and share our experiences along the way. Buying a home is the biggest financial purchase most of us ever make. Those of you who’ve been through it can probably understand that I am filled with equal parts excitement and terror. Excited that we will finally have a place to call our own. Terrified with the prospect of having to defend my credit rating, and spending the next few months sparring with the mortgage company.

As soon as I have a chance, I want to backtrack a bit, and write about how this whole thing started. Shannon and I toured close to twenty existing properties before making a decision to build a new house with Dominion Homes in Northeast Columbus.  Stay tuned for this story, and may others, along with pictures and links to other homebuying Websites.

  1. I think you did a really good job on the website, honey! I sent out a link to some people and got great feedback! I am so excited about our new house!

  2. Congratulations to the both of you. All I can say is have a lot of patience and when it runs out, go to the store and buy some more… it will be all worth it in the end when your sitting in your house and its all yours…
    love always
