Got the Chance

During tea time, I went down to check for post and I saw a letter from WI Bank. My heart was pumping so fast, so I took the letter, went upstairs and opened it. Indeed... it is the answer of the WI Bank for our loan application. And we got a reservation for it. OMG. I cannot believe it. This is the last sign that I was waiting for. I said to myself, as well as to hubby, that we will do everything that we can, but then, if our loan will not be approved, we should just accept our faith that we will not build our dream house. But this is it! I think, this is the point of no return.

This is really a big phase of our life. It is not only that we will be going to build our dream house, but it is also a big responsibility to face (Financially). God, please help us for the BIG project ahead of us. Give us more strength, patience and faith that we will survive this long journey. Thank you so much for the sign.

It has been a week or two and still no results and no replies from all the Earthworks company. We need to know how much will it really costs, so we can decide if we will build a house with basement or not. I have been calling them for follow up and they all replied, they are working on the quotation.

Last week, I called ProHaus to verify if they received our letter and what will be the next step after that. They replied that they are presently working on it and we will receive a verification letter and a call this week regarding the Architect visit schedule.

There is also no reply and update from WiBank.

I wish and hope we will have a productive week :p

Bathroom and Kitchen Plan

I thought, making the Bathroom and Kitchen floor plans is as easy as counting 1-2-3. Now that I am doing it, I would say, it is like shopping signature clothes during a big sale. I can use all the time in the world, but still... it is not easy to decide which is which. It is because they are all just awesome ha ha ha. I already used two days of my time to finish the bathroom and kitchen floor plans. I am already finish with my first draft. I will post the picture here as soon as it is already final.

Auslösung Planung

Today, we sent out our Auslösung Planung. That means, we are only waiting for the reply of ProHaus Nordhorn about it.

This is it!

Praying, hoping and wishing. Keeping the faith.

Bodengutachten Results

Today at noon time, the Bodengutachten (Soil Survey) arrived by post. And ofcourse, the bill as well... whew! It is the second bill that we have right now that is related to building our dream house. The first one was the lot survey done last February 27.

Now, we made two important steps for our house project to move forward. At this point, we need to know if we will build with basement or not. That is a very important decision to make, since it is also costs related. We already sent out e-mails for Erdarbeiten (earth work) quotations for both building the house with basement as well as without.

For recap, mid of February this year, we requested a Licensed Engineer to measure and prepare the Qualified Site Map of the building land (Baugründstück). After that, we requested a Geologists to prepare the Soil Survey of the land. Early March, we signed a building contract with ProHaus. After we received the reply of ProHaus Nordhorn, we applied for bank loan (WI Bank). Today, we received the results of the Bodengutachten. Then, we sent out e-mails for Erdarbeiten quotations.
