Thanks! I am not from here, my wife is though. I love the Holly Springs area!

Been working like Bees on this house! Finally moved our stuff in on 7/21/2013 (heck of a birthday present to myself!) My wife and I both thought when we saw the house for the first time that the front porch was missing something. So we decided to add rails and balusters to it and boy did it...

Well a lot has happened since the time that we bought the house. The main one being that I had my contingent offer of employment recanted. And to think I was being as honest as possible and they still recanted it... Oh well time to start looking again. The house is coming along great progress...

We were hoping for the all the painting to be finished by the end of this weekend, however that isn't likely, and we are tearing up the carpets in the 3 bedrooms downstairs to replace it as well, so that will push us out a little bit. Hopefully we can start by next weekend...

Drywall crew has been working really hard, and very long hours! Makes me glad I didn't have to do it! Pics! And this was one of the worst rooms for gouging the drywall when we removed the popcorn because of it being painted over.... Dining area... (hence all the joint compound) Pre...

Thank you! And will do!

Thanks! I grew up in Eastern NC, so NC is the only place I know, and wouldn't change it for the world! We finished the popcorn today! The Drywall crew is coming tomorrow morning at 8am to get started!!!

The kitchen is terrible. Very slow work in there. We are hoping to be finished with it today. We will see!

Good luck with everything! Thanks! This really wasn't on our initial to-do list, however its what happens when you give my wife access to pintrest and a testing area in my mother in laws house (the popcorn removal was put on last weekend)! My wife and I talked about it and we got a really good...

Lol. She is a happily married newlywed to my wife's brother! Excellent resource! We looked at some houses in the New Hill area as well. I loved it but it was a little far out for my wife. Where we are located, it is about 10 mins to anywhere (if not less). Here are some of the progress pics...

Thanks everyone! This is the 1st and it is in Holly Springs, NC and its just outside of the town limit, so no city taxes! I grew up far east of here and basically did all the home maintenance on my parents home. Still do most of it! I missed the yard work!!!! As far as the popcorn, a garden...

Well, my wife and I were able to secure the home and closed on it last Thursday! We are very thankful for our lender and Realtor working everything out. There were not really any major hiccups, but it did not look like we were going to be closing on the scheduled date due to a few things, but...

Hey, thanks for the welcome! The house we just put an offer in on is where it will go. It has a Holly Springs address, but its located outside the city limits! I was definitely not staying in cary! Not my type of town, I need something a little more country!

So here is a rendition of what I was thinking for the garage. Its a 24wx30dx10h Main with the outshoot of 16wx20dx14h. It also has a second floor bonus/bedroom with a walk in and up storage/attic. and it has the wife's approval! Opinions?

Thanks guys! I was afraid that it would always be to small!
