Building Contract - Signed!

Finally, after the long wait -- we signed our building contract. A
5-day cooling off period has started.
- house plans approved by the private certifier
- colour selections finalized, that means any change we make will be an
addl cost to us if through the builder
- we were given the final contract we can give to the bank so they can
issue us with the Letter to Commence Construction.
only pending area is the kitchen due to the delay in getting the details
from their supplier.
A big leap... and we are happy to do it.
