We are STILL waiting to apply for the sewage permit. I have been calling the guy we bought the property from every day for almost a week and he isn’t returning my calls. We need to get the plat of the property from him in order to apply for the permit. once we turn in the paperwork we have to get a backhoe for them to do a perc test. Once THAT happens C can take the test to get certified to install septic systems (which is thankfully free), and actually GET the permit. We want this all done in the next week or so. Time is ticking if we are going to be able to get the outside of the house complete before the snow hits, or it gets too cold to work outside. There is a lot of work to do and none of it can be done until we get the building permit. Plus the fact that this guy is stalling on this stuff is really getting me upset, because until he does all this we technically don’t own the land. I don’t like that we worked so hard to get to this point to just be stalled. I want this house built!!!! The sooner we get the house built the sooner we can start saving for C’s retirement from the 9-5 and moving to 100% farm life.
Please take a moment to pray for us, send good thoughts, whatever you do in hopes of speeding this process up!
It can be really hard when building. We are currently building a house and had to put in a septic system. It was a real pain. Then again, almost everything while building has been a real pain. Patience is your best friend. I hope everything works out smoothly.
