I haven't heard of any community not offering decks. I think it all depends on the community and I know a deck is kind of a "custom" option in our community since it's not something you can pick off of the option list. Hope that helps!

I think we'll probably go out the date of settlement and buy ours. I think the BF wants to finance it but we don't want to do that until the after settlement.

I'll be sure to blog this week about what we are considering! <br />Our PM and SR both said to wait to buy a fridge to be able to measure and make sure it would fit. However, on the Rome the opening is huge, so I'm not concerned about the fridge fitting.

Our PM gave the advice that if you buy ahead, even for things like blinds and stuff, wait til you measure, they never come out exact due to shimming, spackling, etc. it was actually good advice!Chrissie G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10059408236438297457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954139271301354138.post-76854260530207559242014-08-15T06:23:24.048-07:002014-08-15T06:23:24.048-07:00Awesome!

It's not really about the fact that we're not getting Trex, because I'm sure this other brand is fine, but they made a mistake and now are just wanting us to forget about it. <br /><br />I'm thinking he just told us the wrong dimensions and meant to say 40" because 30" is just so small! <br /><br />I definitely do need to get the table done BEFORE the move! It will make my life so much easier, and you're right. We would just end up buying one if I didn't do it before we moved! lol!LaurLewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17859351088653575241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954139271301354138.post-5871780620089339782014-08-15T06:12:56.287-07:002014-08-15T06:12:56.287-07:00I know!

I mean, even a few extra outlets or light rough-ins that cost them next to nothing would be nice! I thought about going the social media route. My boyfriend is going to try and tackle all of this today and we actually have the SR and PM's managers email so that's an option too!<br /><br />I was actually looking at an LG top loader for our washing machine! It has great ratings and was priced well too! The fridge decision is so hard! There are so many! I've never bought a fridge either so I have no idea was a reasonable price is! haha!

I would think it would be larger than 30" especially if what you are finding online is generally larger than that. Hopefully a simple mistake. :) <br /><br />I would DEFINITELY try to get the table done ahead of time. That way it is easy to move in and you will have a perfect place to sit down, take a break, and start cooking those meals in YOUR home :) No hesitation and no thinking "I have to make this table" and before you know it, every excuse comes out and you end up buying one. :) Michelle Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04216810946951264257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954139271301354138.post-17926520642513374382014-08-14T16:46:31.368-07:002014-08-14T16:46:31.368-07:00I HATE the avoidance when they lie.

I would be on social media blasting them. You will get your trex then! <br /><br />I have to start shopping for appliances. I'm actually looking forward to the washer/dryer. I LOVED my LG top loader/HE machine in our old house. So much so I wanted to take it... But that would have been a tremendous pain. So I'm pretty sure we will just get the same model. As for fridge I'm torn... Why is it so hard? Lol. bridgethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07159261429235343079noreply@blogger.com
