Being a responsible, successful homeowner
You’re in! You’ve got new keys — house keys! You can paint rainbows on your walls — and hang pictures on them, too! You can have a conversation without worrying about neighbors overhearing. You can even get a golden retriever, if you were so inclined!
Ahh, homeownership. Ain’t life grand?
Yes, it is. But it’s a lot of responsibility and hard work, too — again, part of the price of being a successful homeowner. In this section of the site, you’ll learn more of what you can expect, as far as:
- maintenance,
- prioritizing improvements and repairs
- doing the work yourself or hiring a professional
- insuring your home
- establishing a rainy day reserve
- getting help if you get into financial trouble
