Top Five Tips for New Homeowners

  1. Change the locks as soon as possible. You have no idea how many copies of the keys are floating around out there. Keep your new home as secure as possible.
  2. If you are wanting to paint your new home, try to arrange that prior to moving in. An empty house will make it much easier.
  3. Start an emergency fund for repairs and maintenance.
  4. Plant trees, shrubs, and hedges as soon as possible, since they take years to grow. You will thank yourself later.
  5. Be slow to take on major renovations. If you do renovate, make improvements that add value (consult with your realtor).
