This weekend was the Grand Opening of the Lofts on Broughton Street in downtown Savannah. My husband and I went, taking along three friends of ours. What a great turnout! While we were there, there was a steady stream of people coming and going, and there were at least 100 people there at all times. The event was catered by Locos, with entertainment by Trae Girley and a great artwork display by Penelope Miller.
Several completed lofts were open for touring, while the main event - the cocktail party - was held in a giant unfinished corner space with exposed beams, brick walls and a great view of Broughton Street.

Today was a gorgeous day for Super Museum Sunday. Savannah area museums offered free admission for the hundreds of people who turned out to enjoy the arts. My husband Rob and I were among them, and we had a great time. We visited the Jepson Center for the Arts, the Telfair Museum and the Owens-Thomas House. Part of the fun was walking from museum to museum. The weather was perfect, everyone was out walking through the squares, and some of the trees have even begun to flower. The sound of laughter floating through the air was invigorating.

We’re rejoining my brother-in-law Daniel as he buys his first home. If you didn’t read Part I yet, you’ll want to do that now.
He’s already
- Decided on the type of home he wanted
- Found the particular home he wanted to purchase
We’ll pick up here with the third step in the home buying process:
3. Find a great mortgage lender.
If you don’t know any mortgage lenders that you’d like to work with, your Realtor will be able to give you several reputable names. You need to find a lender that you feel comfortable with, whose company can offer the best loan programs to meet your needs and who will go the extra mile to stay on top of your paperwork and get you to closing smoothly and with no stress on your part. Your lender should never talk down to you and should be ready to explain the loan process in easy-to-follow terms.
I gave Daniel the names and numbers of three local lenders whom I have worked with and know to be trustworthy.
