Pre-Settlement Demonstration

Our final walk through is in the books.

We didn't spend much time on the appliances since I let the PM know that we are replacing them all the morning after we close on the house.  I'm going to list them for sale on Craigslist today.

Overall, the house looked great!

There were a few issues with the finishing but they were mostly minor and easy fixes.

PM is ordering a new stair baluster to replace the cracked one.

We noted a scratch in the resilient flooring that will be repaired.

The kitchen countertop issue is being resolved after closing.

We are waiting on a replacement cabinet door.

We noted that some other cabinets were scratched and or blemished.  PM is ordering new materials to fix those areas.

PM is going to have the master bath shower outer tile seam (outside the door) re-worked as the grout doesn't look great. (Note on this - the framing was a bit wide so the shower door fell in a spot where it wouldn't be able to mount to anything.  They doubled up the concrete backer board to make up the difference).

They had missed an exterior window in painting the trim.

They are going to power wash the basement floor (again) to clean up the remaining dirt.  It was pretty rough from the mud/water issues that happened during construction.

I'm sure I'm missing something and will post more notes later if I think of them.  For now, we're inventorying things and working on our current house to prep it for sale.  We have lots of deliveries coming with stuff for the new house and can't wait to begin the transition!!
