Real Estate Information Archive

Buying a home in today’s crazy real estate market is no small feat. If you recently closed on a house, first off congratulations! But don’t get too complacent just yet. There are a handful of things you should do immediately upon moving in. We have broken those actions down below - let’s dive in: 

1. One of the first things you want to do after moving into your new home is to change the locks. There is no way for you to know how many people currently hold a key to your new abode so it’s best to be safe and change all the locks on the doors. Also, it’s always a good idea to make and hide a spare key somewhere outside in the event you lock yourself out.

2. Another task is to check the batteries in the smoke detectors to ensure they are working. As a lot of smoke detectors only last for about ten years or so, it’s also a good idea to check how old they are and if there is a warranty. Additionally, check if the smoke detector had a carbon monoxide detector built in. If not, that should be your next purchase! 

3. Connecting the utilities is another important step to take (ideally) before moving into your new Omaha, NE home. Utilities such as water, electricity, and gas are essential to have working as you get settled in. You can check with your local providers to get an idea of what the process looks like, how far in advance you need to schedule the turn-on, and the type of residence verification you will need to provide. 

4. Once you are a bit more settled in, you will want to go over the inspection report to review what repairs were noted and need to be completed. While major repairs were most likely negotiated during the contract phase, other minor ones will likely be your responsibility. List them in order of importance and make time to tackle each one. 

5. Your new home will require regular maintenance and cleaning so creating a schedule of what needs to be completed each month will help keep you organized and on track. These tasks include cleaning the gutters, completing pest inspections, emptying the hot water heater, winterizing your home, cleaning air filters, and more. Regularly maintaining your home is the key to maintaining its value for the future. 

6. Lastly, get to know your neighbors! There is nothing better than having a great relationship with the people living around you and now is the perfect time to introduce yourself, your family, and any furry four-legged family members you have. 

Happy memory-making in your new home!! Enjoy.
