Who knew that building/buying a home would be so frustrating. Anyways we have some new drama in our house saga. We just found out that their is an irrigation easement on our property. At first we thought it wasn't going to be a big deal. But after some investigating and talking to our neighbor we found out that it is a big deal. We loose 500 sq feet of our yard and can't use it at all. We can't put a fence, grass or anything. So in the long run our house looses a significant amount of value if we were ever to resell it.
So after a bunch of run around from the builder we have resorted to our secret weapon, Everitt and Clark (Ben's commercial real estate brothers). They are opening a can of whoop-ass on the builder. Basically we have 3 options...
1. Give us back our money and we find another place to buy
2. Build us a new home on a different lot
3. Significantly lower the price of our home
So I will keep you updated on the outcome. We are just grateful to have caught this issue before we moved in.
When we decided to move to Utah Rachel and I never would have imagined that we would be purchasing a home so soon. Neither would we have ever thought that we would be building a home. You are welcome to follow our house build with us.
