Once you buy a new home, you have no idea on where to start on how to make it look like a real home! First off, CONGRATS! You got a new home and you have the keys and now it is time to furnish a new home and you need that checklist in one spot so that you do not do trial and error.
I am here to give you the scoop on what to get, what not to get, and what you may need depending on different factors! So here it is my new home essentials list and my ultimate list of essentials things you will need for your new home.
Starting off with my top tips when you are moving into a new home,
1. Measure your new home: You should accurately measure each room in order to plan out and purchase furniture that fits appropriately.
2. Make a list of items needed: Create a list of items you need for the new house such as kitchenware, bedding, cleaning supplies, etc., so you know exactly what to buy when shopping.
3. Prioritize important tasks: Some things will take more time than others when setting up your new home, so make sure to prioritize essential tasks first like setting up utilities or getting internet access.
4. Don’t forget about safety features: When creating a new home checklist don’t forget about important safety features such as smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors and fire extinguishers for added security in case of an emergency situation at home.
5. Use technology to organize checklist items: If you want help keeping track of all the details that come with moving into a new place, use technological tools like online apps or spreadsheets to manage it efficiently and effectively!
