Leading up to the purchase of your first home, you were probably getting a lot of advice from friends, family, and even total strangers. It was probably a big relief on closing day when you realized you made it through the home buying process and could finally move in and relax.
That is, until you figured out that there was still a lot you didn’t know about not buying a home, but owning a home.
Back when you were renting, your landlord took care of the maintenance and those unexpected repairs. You probably weren’t paying attention to the architecture or historic details of your apartment, and you certainly didn’t care about keeping the house too organized. It’s different when it’s your home, though. Suddenly, all those things matter — and calling your parents at all hours of the day and night with questions can get old really fast.
For many new homeowners, the euphoria that comes with buying the perfect new house can soon turn into total panic. First-time buyers often feel overwhelmed by the amount of maintenance their new home requires, not to mention the nasty problems and surprises that seem to be lurking around every corner (and in every wall). Finally, help is on the way.
