Unlike living in an apartment where everything is taking care of by management or the buildings super the upkeep of a house is the owners responsibility. Here is a list of things you may want to budget for when buying a house.โ
๐ฑ Landscaping including snow removal, leaf pick up and the upkeep of your garden in the summerโ
๐โ๏ธ Pool cleaningโ
๐ฅ Chimney cleaning
โ ๐ Garbage pickup (this is automatically done in cities but not in most towns across Fairfield County)โ
๐ฟ Powerwashing the exterior of the houseโ
๐ฝ Septic maintenanceโ
๐ง Well water maintenanceโ
๐The generator needs to be serviced every yearโ
๐ฅต Your AC and heating systems needs to be serviced twice a year and if your house runs on oil you are subject to additional oil costs tooโ typically when you buy a house the previous homeowner provides you with a list of the services and companies theyโve used.
