My wife and I are building a house. We estimate that we’ll be in some time around mid-March. We will be first time homeowners and request the advice of friends on what to expect once get under the mortgage and all the other expenses. I’ve estimated what the payments will be along with estimates on utilities, taxes etc. I just wanted to hear from friends about anything we need to be on the watch for. We are excited about it but also want to be as ready as possible. Please comment any ‘hidden’ expenses that we can better prepare for. You can comment on this post or drop me an email.

Everything takes time. Don’t be in a hurry to finish everything here and now. Don’t feel guilty in saying no to things that can wait. And remember it will all come together but maybe not how you planned (usually better)! We are very excited for you both!!

Thanks for your information. Some of those will apply to us, some will not. We appreciate your kind words and do look for an invite when we get settled in.
