“The American dream is still to own your home.” – Barry Sternlicht
Congratulations! You’ve just closed on a home in the Boston area, and are wondering what to do next. Thankfully, the Boston home insurance experts here at Vargas and Vargas Insurance Agency are here to help you. After closing is complete, your ‘to-do’ list should include the following tasks:
- Change the locks around the house – this should be your first priority since you never know how many copies of the old key are floating around with the old owner’s family and friends.
- Usually, the seller will clean the home to a reasonable degree before moving out, but this is your chance to do a deep clean without any furniture in the home. You can take on the task of doing it yourself or hire a professional cleaning crew for a one-time job.
- Again, since there’s no furniture or boxes in the house yet, now is the perfect time to take on projects like painting or resurfacing floors.
And to make sure that your new home is fully insured, place a call to Vargas and Vargas Insurance Agency at 617-298-0655. We will review your needs and match you with a home insurance policy that fits the needs of you and your family. Our agents are always happy to answer questions and provide free home insurance quotes, so don’t hesitate to call when you’re on the road to homeownership.
