Dream Home On A Budget - Can You Swing It?

On today's podcast, SoFlo Real Estate | Ask Athena and Julie Anything, we dive into a topic that is forgotten. That topic is the cost of owning a home and how to properly budget so you won't have to burden your asset with additional loans or, even worse, sell your home.
Owning a home requires constant monitoring and budgeting for maintenance and insurance costs. Home inspections are crucial for both buyers and homeowners to identify potential issues and budget for repairs. Key items to inspect include the roof, plumbing, AC, exterior, and trees. Annual or regular inspections can prevent costly repairs. Insurance premiums are increasing, so homeowners should budget for higher costs and consider getting multiple quotes. Creating a budget and saving for unexpected expenses is essential for homeownership.
