In my last post I wrote about hearing God say, “just try”… so I wanted to update you on the results of our tryings..
The house sold in two weeks for our asking price!!! which is mind blowing and I didn’t believe it was real until the money was in the bank and we were moved in with the girls.
We found two manufactured homes for the price of one from at the home outlet in chandler Arizona.
The well drilling for water cost less than the lowest amount in the estimate we received. Because it was estimated for 800 feet and water was hit around 525 feet.
We had the property witched for water, and he was spot on! Highly recommend
Septic has been installed and approved for both houses!!
Now the real question .. was everything smooth sailing? Nope, it wouldn’t be life if everything was perfect. But that’s when the certainty of faith and trusting the journey comes in. I’m learning to accept what is, not get overwhelmed and just ride it out and it’ll work out.
When they dug the well it collapsed, caved in, they lost 7 thousand dollars of pipe and I was thinking with the cost of them having to dig another hole we’d have to sell the property once the well was dug because we’d be broke! Guess what! They didn’t charge us for drilling again AND it costs less because the water wasn’t so deep!
The septic, because of the type of dirt out there, it’s almost all clay, we went from it costing 7,500 per septic to possibly 19,000 each!!! Thankfully the alternative of longer leach fields was approved by the county and the cost was 12,000 each..
We still aren’t sure if we’ll have enough money to do all we’d like to do, but hopefully it’ll be at least enough to do the essentials.. if you want deeper details please check out our YouTube channel rescued relics
Merry Christmas to you my people and I hope you are surround by loved ones and feel the love this holiday season. And remember, JUST TRY!
