Douglas fir, bought air dried several years ago, been sitting under my bench seasoning since then. It’s significantly lighter than when I first got it. Got two bits, on has splits, this one (originally 620x300x160) was split free. Lovely stuff.
If your mortgage guy is worth his salt he’ll answer that for you. Our mortgage advisor arranged porting of the remainder of my wife’s mortgage + a new loan to buy our current place. It’s all possible, just have to find a lender that’ll do it.
