Setting a Maintenance Budget
Homes require regular upkeep and occasional repairs. Planning for maintenance helps prevent unexpected financial stress.
Why Maintenance Costs Matter
Even well maintained homes need repairs over time. A maintenance budget helps spread costs out rather than handling them all at once.
Planning Ahead
Setting aside funds monthly or annually helps prepare for routine upkeep and surprises.
Maintenance Is Part of Ownership
Thinking about maintenance as a normal part of homeownership helps make costs more manageable.
