Colorado B.S. Thread

There can be. I just have to find my stuff. It's all in random boxes. I almost bought a dehydrator the other day so I can then make a few types of jerky.

 

Hoyal - who's your builder?

 

Oakwood was my builder. I'm going to stop by and snap some more photos soon.

 

Oakwood was my builder, too. I've been very happy with my home so far. What floor plan did you go with?

 

The platte, was going to build the gunnison but we decided it was not going to be our forever home. So we built a smaller house with a lot of upgrades.

What floor plan did you build?

 

I don't recall the name of the floor plan, but this home has the exact same floor plan as ours (with different finishings).

 

Nice I don't know which that is. But it's nice, mine will be 2300 sq feet as well.

 

I think my finished square feet is around 1800 or so. I looked at a few other homes that had more square footage, but a lot of the extra space was just wasted. Oakwood has some strange floor plans, but if you pick the right one you can get a brutally efficient use of space.

 

Yeah mine is 1800 with out the basement. With the basement is 2300, I believe. There were tons in my area that had more sq feet. Mine is one of the smaller homes.

 

Are you having them finish your basement? I can't decide if I want to finish mine or not - I'm just not sure I'd get much return on my investment from it.

 

Im doing it my self. I got my house way cheaper than I should have, it was a paper work error on their part. I got ALOT in up grades that I didn't pay for and added about 8k more that I did pay for. So I lucked out, finishing the basement for me will be good because it will put me way ahead in the event I want to sell it.

 

Looks good Devin. Can't wait to get out there and see these in person, shopping online is getting bland.

 

You should call Jennifer and have her send you listings. She digs deep and has her own website that gets pre listings.

Any bites on your house yet to sell?

 

We are going to rent it until we decide otherwise, rentals are hard to come by in my community, so I'm going to try and leverage that. The plan right now is to move out there around June and get a short term lease on an apartment and look for a house to rent while we build. If things go well I will reach out to Jennifer when we are visiting in May next year to touch base and get some ideas, then go from there.

We still don't know what we want, property south of Denver or within driving distance of friends we have yet to make. Hopefully she can steer us in some direction.

edit: Don't want to get my hopes up, but stories like this are very helping in swaying decisions when you rely on the internet to work.

Well the great thing about CO things aren't very far apart. I just made it from my neighborhood in Johnstown to my parents in The springs in 2hr 35min. Keep looking and keep us in the loop for when you are coming out.

 

Phill!!! Emmmmmmm.

 

Dear god where is that Devin? I'm building a 'must eat here list'

 

That's Rudy's BBQ. And this was my brisket loaded baked potato.

Also had 1 lb of turkey and a jalapeño sausage. Some cream corn, potato salad and banana pudding. I have a date with my treadmill in the morning.

 

I knew it was Rudy's as soon as I saw the picture. Rudy's Creamed Corn FTMFW!

 

excellent that's what I like to hear. Don't worry, the liver can always handle it, you know I can keep up
