Last night we got back the list of prices for upgrades/changes that we want to make. Not horrible, well that is until we realized that this did not include the $25K lot upgrade, the stairs from the deck to the ground level, the ceramic tile in the bathrooms and backhall or upgrading the bathroom cabinets. Negotiations could get sticky, but that is why we have a real estate agent. Denise did suggest that we ask for everything then decide what can be added later. Get the cabinets that we want but maybe wait for the counter tops then see what we can work for a deal on that later. I do think that their countertop prices are a little steep. I have a show in Columbus, OH on December 6 - 8 so Rob will come along with me and we will go to Cincinnat from there. Hopefully we will at least be able to see where the lots will be. We are also going to hopefully take care of some of the design choices. This Saturday we are going to a cabinet store to look at color/styles/upgrades. We are going to take a dining room chair with us to match. We will also go to a store that sells the paint that the builder uses. Pillow and a sample of the living room paint goes with us. We can't be the only people who have ever done this.
