Hi Every Body,
How are you all? After completely levels of school or job training after graduating from high school, many people find themselves ready to get rid of their college lamp and other college merchandise. They are ready to become "grown-ups" and begin the true responsibility of owning their first home. After they have met with the bank, signed all the papers, and legally own the house, people should do the following four things before their move-in date. They should do any major projects to the house, buy furniture, get rid of all the hand-me-downs they've received over the years and decide if they want to live alone or have roommates.
If a person can afford it, they should complete all major projects that need to be done to the house before moving into it. They should make sure the plumbing and electric are current and updated. They should have the roof inspected and replaced if necessary. All appliances should be checked and replaced if they are not in correct working order. Once a person moves all their belongings into the home it becomes much more difficult to navigate around and replace or make repairs to these items. Also, some people decide to include these types of projects in their original loan from the bank. Paying the projects off would then be rolled into their monthly payment.
Buying new furniture is an expensive, yet necessary thing for all first time homeowners to do. Most people have been living in a much smaller apartment or possibly even with their parents up until this point. In their new home, they will have many rooms to fill and walls to hang pictures upon. Many furniture stores have specials where there is a period of time that someone can take to payback the full amount of the purchase without incurring interest or penalty. Using these types of programs will allow the new homeowner to decorate and live comfortably without staring at empty spaces for years to come.
If someone really wants to have a fresh start in their new home, they will have to get rid of all the hand-me-downs they have received in the past. This means getting rid of the old stained coffee pot, mismatched towels and random accessory here and there. While it is thoughtful for parents and friends to donate 'stuff' to your apartment, it is even nicer to start out in a new home with things that have been purposefully selected. Having matching towels and pretty plates is definitely not a necessity. However, it is wonderful to wake up in a new home and drink coffee from a beautiful mug that has meaning to the new owner.
Lastly, before someone moves into their first home, they must decide if they want to share their new space with anyone else. While living alone is ideal for many new homeowners, financially, it may make more sense to share the bills and responsibilities with another person. Having someone pay rent can take some of the money stress off the owner, allowing them to truly enjoy their new purchase.
Best Regards.....
