This afternoon, we closed on our property in Primm Springs. We are now the proud owners of just over 9 acres of lovely rolling pasture. It hasn’t quite sunk in yet, except for the big ding to the bank account.

It has been quite a journey to find this piece of land. And, there was no pressure of course, because it was only for our forever home. We searched for nearly 18 months to find just the spot. There were many weekends spent driving around checking out listings or trying to stumble upon a for-sale-by-owner deal. (We found one, but the owner never called us back. Great strategy for trying to sell something.) We would diligently research listings on google-earth and the county GIS only to find that the property was a) entirely wooded, b) basically a cliff, and/or c) configured in such a way that one must build a tall, skinny house on a 5 acre lot.

Thankfully, we stuck it out and eventually the right property came along. So, here we are, ready to build our forever home!
