Owning a home is the greatest accomplishment in everyone’s life. It brings perpetual quality, and security. You may have gone through so much of trouble to find the perfect house in the perfect location, among perfect people. If you thought that the trouble is dealt with after signing the contract, you couldn’t be more wrong. There are so many things you need to sort out before you move into your new home. From leaky pipes to the paints of the walls and ceiling, there are so many things that would require your immediate attention if you want to make sure that you don’t encounter any trouble on the day you move into your home.
Fixer uppers.
Every house, brand new or already rented out, will have something that needs to be fixed to meet your needs. Call in for a house inspection and get a detailed data of what needs to be fixed right away, what needs to be installed and what repairs can be put off for later. Taking care of the repairs before you move in will save you from a lot of trouble, imagine walking into your home and finding out the electricity is out because of shortage in the circuits? Not fun ways to kick start your first day in the new home.
Pest control.
The first and the foremost thing to do is pest control! You don’t want to find your basement filled with creepy crawlies. You may also want to opt for a pre purchase termite inspection Perth to make sure that your furniture’s are going to be safe and not be eaten away by termites! You don’t want to ruin your new couch and wooden tables only a few days after you’ve bought them.
Paint and clean.
Grab a set of paint brush and some gallons of paint and paint your heart out. The reasons you should paint the house beforehand is because of the two major advantages. Painting ahead of time gives the house time to let some circulation into before you’re really living there, and your furniture won’t stand out while you’re working. Paint some test swatches on the dividers and perceive how you like them over a couple of days and if you don’t like how the colour looks during the day or night, you still have time to change. The best time to get some cleaning done is before moving in. you won’t have the furniture in the way to work around with, you have nothing but an empty space to clean up which is much easier than cleaning up after you’ve moved your things in.
