The Cart before the Horse

So it's been a couple of weeks since the papers have been signed. We've decided on a property management company for when (and if) the sale goes through! http://www.houseproudflorida.com/ They seem like really nice people and all the other homeowners that I talked to who use them had nothing but great things to say. 

I've got my quotes in from 4 different inspection companies, so that is off my list. The only decision we need to make is whether or not to get a wind mitigation inspection. That's what I was working on today, quotes for insurance and if the wind mitigation inspection will help to decrease our premiums. Decisions, decisions:)  Hurricanes can be a pain in your pocket book!

I can't help but think that I'm getting ahead of myself (hence the title). I'm just hoping that by being prepared, we'll be able to jump into action once we have a closing date!

So as I sit here writing down my thoughts, I can't help but daydream about warmer weather and exciting changes. Our 2 kids have been making a list of all the things they want to do when they go to Florida again. This weekend is the beginning of Mardi Gras celebrations at Universal Studios (http://www.universalorlando.com/Events/Mardi-Gras/Overview.aspx). , it sounds like a lot of fun and we'll definitly have to add it to our "to do" list.
