The First 30 Days in Your New Home | New Homeowner Checklist Printable

Description:

Nobody hands you a manual when you get your keys. This is that manual.

The First 30 Days is a 17-page printable checklist system that walks you through everything you need to do in your first month as a homeowner. Week by week, room by room, nothing gets missed.

What's inside:

Day 1: Security Change locks, rekey entry points, update garage codes, and secure every access point before you unpack a single box.

Day 1: Safety Locate every shutoff, test every detector, and label your electrical panel. Know where everything is before you need it.

Week 1: Utilities Transfer every service into your name, update your address everywhere it matters, and document your starting meter readings.

Week 1: Document Photograph every room, every appliance serial number, and every meter reading. Timestamped proof that protects you.

Week 2: Systems Run every appliance. Check every drain. Learn how your house actually works while everything is still under warranty.

Week 2: First Fixes Catch the small things before they become expensive things. Caulk, weatherstripping, gutters, foundation, and more.

Week 3: Get Organized Build your contacts list, record paint colors, file warranties, and set up the reference system that runs the next 10 years.

Week 4: First Maintenance Set your monthly reminder, stock your repair kit, and start the habits that keep small problems from becoming big ones.

Plus a laminate-ready quick reference card and a notes page for anything you spot along the way.
