In the Beginning...

Our home search began in Mid-May 2012, when Candeth (my wife), came home saying she saw this model house that she loved. Candeth then snatched up the Girls (Jada 8 and Autumn 3) and I to see this model.  A Perlco Home in Camp Springs, Md...this home was impressive (I loved how the bathroom was set-up) but the house didn't have that it factor. Although it was impressive for Candeth and the girls.  We continued our search to Ryan Homes (Victoria Falls, Savoy, Belford, & the Yorkshire). These homes were good but they were not complete...A brief glance at Lennar Homes did little for me and Candeth was never interested.  So I was going to settle with the Belford by Ryans but I was not totally convince.  So the search kept going until we came across Stewart & Kret Homes.  Well Stewart & Kret made us an offer that was toooooo good to give up...we signed the contract on a house that was 80% finished.  We would have been moving in at the end of October 2012, but that door was shut and for some reason we never gave them our earnest money...Thank God.

I told Candeth, that I will not rest until I purchase her first house...so I was heading back to the Victoria Falls by Ryan Homes when I came across D.R. Horton.  They were having half off on option and throwing in a finished basement.  Well not to drag on and on we settled on the Covington.
