Hello all, it's been awhile since my last post. We have been very busy getting the old house cleaned out and cleaned up. So much to do, so little time.
Dishwasher is still not fixed. We should have received the new control panel last week. Today, we called GE to check on the status; however, we were very disappointed to find out that they couldn't find a record for us and GE recommended that we contact RH. We contacted the PM, who informed us that the part is on back order and we should receive it later this week.
Pre-settlement follow-up - The PM stopped by last week to follow-up with us on the items from the pre-settlement walk-thru. There are several items that need to be done...the garage floor still needs fixed, the landing to the family room stairs didn't meet our satisfaction and the PM is going to have someone take a look at it. I think there are a few other items, but I can't remember what they are at this time.
Irrigation system is currently being installed. They started to install the system last week and it should be done either today or tomorrow. However, we probably won't need it until Spring. Our grass is coming in very nicely and we plan to mow the grass for the first time sometime this week. At the 30 day inspection, we will talk to the PM about re-seeding some of the bare areas.
Trees ... around mid-October they plan to start planting the trees. 8-10 trees are from the township and RH provides us with 7 trees. The 8-10 trees from the township will be planted along the community sidewalk in front of the house. The PM stopped by to give us 7 red flags for us to let RH know where we want the trees planted; however, it is very hard for us to make a decision when we don't even know what type of tree we will be receiving. We are waiting for the PM to get back to us.
30 day inspection... is coming up next week. We have a list of things to go over with the PM. So far, nothing major. A few squeaky floor boards, 1 window is giving us some problems, 1 air vent is making noise from the attic, etc.
We plan to have a house warming party in a few weeks, so we are really trying to get things in order before then. We hope to post some pictures very soon.
Until next time....happy building, happy moving, happy living!!!

Hi HW! Congratulations on your amazing home! I've been following your blog all summer and want to thank you for sharing your experience. If it wasn't for you and several other bloggers I don't think my husband and I would have decided to build with RH. We started a blog of our own to help others who may be starting the decison process. We look forward to seeing pictures once you are settled and ready for the big reveal! GO STEELERS!
