Housing Pre-Inspection Today

Well, this should be interesting. Any time now, the base housing inspector should be over to do their initial walk-through of The Cave and let us know what, if anything, we will have to repair or pay for. If they try to charge us any extra money, I just may have to refer them to some actual construction companies so they can see how a real house is built. Anyway. I'm just hoping it goes smoothly. And that we don't get someone like the *cough* man we had at Andrews AFB. That was fun. The pre-inspection, for those who aren't familiar with military housing proceedings, is to allow the housing office and the current occupants to see what, if anything, needs to be completed or repaired before the occupant can clear housing. That is, leave free and clear. We should be given a list showing any and all items that need to be finished before our final inspection later next month. Things such as cleaning the appliances, vacuuming (or in our case, having the carpets professionally cleaned as we have pets), and basically just leaving a clean house.
As I was typing the above, the inspector came by. She was very nice and helpful! Looks like it should be a fairly simple deal to get this place cleaned up ourselves. Well, except for the carpets. Bleh. Ah well. This place will definitely be in better shape than when we moved in! For one, the yard will be clean and free of animal poo. Gross. So there we go!
Hopefully all will go well in the next few weeks, and we will be in our new home soon! Very exciting!
