As some know, the hubby's going to be retiring from his military career next year and we are relocating to Southern California. We are looking at an area that is about 1.5 hours away from San Diego (close enough to my family to visit, but far away enough to discourage relatives from just "dropping by"). We found a city and area that we like and a subdivision that's being built right now with floorplans that we really like. It can be built up to 6 bedrooms/4.5 baths. What I need for 6 bedrooms, not sure, but hubby really likes the floorplan.
Which begs the question from those that have built their homes/own their homes and have renovated. What would you have done differently if you could go at it all over again? Are there somethings that you wish you just didn't do, for instance, some of the upgrades? What do you wish that you knew then that you do now?
I'm just trying to think of questions to ask the builder/realtor when I go down next month to look at everything. Can anyone give me some pointers?
