  1. Not reading the manual – This is a big one! It’s important to read the entire manual for your new home, even if you think you already know how everything works. There may be nuances or features that you are not aware of.
  2. Not accounting for the climate – If you’re moving from a cold area to a warmer area, make sure to account for the change in climate when purchasing furniture and appliances. You don’t want to buy something that will only last a year in your new home.
  3. Not budgeting properly – Don’t forget to take into account taxes, insurance, and other monthly bills when budgeting for your new home.
