Organize your home records to stay on top of maintenance
You’ve made it to May, and it’s time to check in on your New Year’s resolution to stay organized — starting with your home maintenance records.
Collect printed and digital home records, including instruction manuals, appliance warranties, home improvement records (like the receipts for that sunroom addition you just put in), and repair invoices. Then organize and save the documents in a physical or digital file.
By organizing these documents, you can review and reflect on the investments you’ve made to improve your home. You can better plan future repairs by taking note of maintenance that’s upcoming or overdue. Plus, when it’s time to sell, you can easily justify your asking price and present records of significant upgrades to the appraiser.
Realtor Tip: When it’s time to sell, you can easily justify your asking price and present records of significant upgrades and routine maintenance to the appraiser.
