It has been one hell of journey as you bounce from one apartment to another. Settling down isn't just about putting roots somewhere. It's about getting a place of your own and taking charge of your own life. When you get that new place, it will most likely be empty and it will lack what you had in the home you grew up in. Here are some tips to help you make this new house a home.
Owning a home adds a whole bunch of new expenses to your life. It can be easy to get lost in the due dates and amounts and end up missing a payment. If you want to own a home, you must be able to do the financial gymnastics that go along with it.
This means keeping track of where money needs to go and when it needs to get there. You must have an organized and functioning budget to survive. As of right now, do you have a budget? If not, do you know how to set one up? Everybody has their own way of setting up a budget, so find a way that works for you. You will find this essential during homeownership.
Make sure that when you are talking to retail store owners or interior designers that you remember that this is your home. These "consultants" will more than likely give you ideas that match and sometimes matching is not what you need, unless you are wanting to have one of those cookie cutter homes. It is just better to take on the design yourself.
It really is all subjective any way so choosing things that match and things that look good in your eyes can be two completely different things.
There will definitely be problems when you get into your new home. Whether you have a couch that doesn't fit where you thought it would or the fung shui is off in the room, you may have to do a little problem solving. This doesn't mean that you will have to redo the cabnets or the floor. Sometimes all it takes is a little creativity and some ingenuity.
Remember that when you are arranging, buying, or just refurbishing furniture that you need to have a vision of where it will go before you start moving forward. This will save you a lot of time and effort in the end. No matter where you are moving to whether it is Utah or Mississippi, it is important to realize that you will be spending your time in that house so there is no reason you shouldn't make it feel like a home.
