Our walls are textured as well! I was not told or didn't even think to ask and I'm not a fan of it. I prefer smooth walls. I wanted to do wall paper for my daughter's play room and didn't think through how the textured walls might affect it!

$2500 extra for sante fe texture of 1400 sf home in Phoenix, AZ. Sante Fe is not completely smooth. Your house is much bigger than ours and your texture looks like Sante Fe. I think you did good. You can wallpaper over that with a little thicker wallpaper. You did good!

I also agree it must be a west coast thing because I don’t ever recall seeing any textured walls anywhere on the east side lol sometimes there’s a textured ceiling, but that has become an outdated style. Our modern ceilings are all smooth too.

We did tile for the shower walls and we did carpet in all the bedrooms. In our last home we did tile throughout the entire house and it was good but I honestly love carpet in the bedrooms. We ended up buying a huge rug for the bedroom after we put the tile so this time we just stuck to carpet. Take pictures of everything at the design center! That’s seriously my biggest regret. Have fun!! It’s seriously the best part lol.

ive seen textured walls in new construction and remodels/flips in past 10 yrs in Texas Georgia and California. i hate its so much more $$$$ for smooth walls or ceilings and it makes no sense to me. some builders ive looked at in TX dont even offer smooth walls

Yeah textured walls are the worst! Now that I think about it when I lived in TX I’m almost 100% sure our walls had textured there too. I don’t think I have ever lived in a house with smooth walls.

@@marymaeee 😆😆 What you have isn't bad at all. It looks similar to what I had to pay for, only maybe a tad thicker. I'm talking about the super bumpy walls. My current property has those and I just knew I didn't want that in the new build at all. But I'm so mad I had to pay for it!

I’m curious about the rate locking $$ amount for the extended time period, our lender offered it to us & said that What we paid for that lock would go towards closing costs in the end. Is that What your lender said? And yay for all of this progress! So happy for you guys! I would love to see your decor and shopping for the new house process.

thank you!! I emailed our loan officer to ask some questions. Since I’m not on the loan they typically won’t give me any info so I have to go based on whatever my husband says and I swear he’s the worst at numbers 🤦🏼♀️ lol. But I did ask for a breakdown and also asked if that would go towards our closing cost to see what they say.
