My crew and I find ourselves standing at the very beginning of the road to our Little Slice of Heaven. If you’ve read my personal blog, this all may be a bit familiar to you. But for those of you who have yet to meet me, let me fill you in a bit.
In 2006, we rented 2 acres in
Our good friends own land up on the nearby mountains. A couple of weeks ago, they offered to sell us part of their land. We are ecstatic and hope to be able to take them up on the offer. But first, we have to start at Step 1.
Before we can get any sort of financing, we have to get some bills paid off and work on our credit scores. This is why I’ve been working since we moved here a little over a year ago. We are making progress, but aren’t quite there yet. So this spring and summer will be spent being as frugal as possible and getting bills paid down.
Our goal is to be able to get financing and to have a decent down payment saved by October of this year. We hope to get a big enough loan that we can both buy the land and build our cabin. Once we get the financing, we’ll have 1 year to get the cabin built. In the coming months, I’ll share with you our journey, and let you know each step along the way.
So come along and join us on our road to Our Little Slice of Heaven.
