Without furniture throughout much of our to-be house, and my propensity to purge old crappy furniture that is in sore need of upgrading, we will likely have some empty rooms between the time we move in and my August bonus hits. As it stands now, our living/dining room, will pretty much be an empty space for the first six months, as will our guest room.
Adam mentioned that we should focus on furnishing the office first (after the kitchen table, which we have decided will be our first purchase). The office is on the second floor, kind of in the middle of the house, and will be a good place to be if we don't want to be in the bedroom or in the basement. I want to make the office feel cozy so I feel comfortable working from home and we both like the idea of buying a 1.5chair for the office - it will be good for reading.
We both plan on taking the dreaded CFA exam in December and are going to need a good place to study in July, when the grueling process begins. Now if I can just get him on board with the paint colors I like for that room!
