10 Ways of Saving Money That Never Work for Anyone

DELAYING HOME MAINTENANCE PROJECTS

It’s easy to put off home maintenance projects, but such delays tend to catch up with you. Eventually you’ll have to pay for repairs. Leaky roofs don’t fix themselves and tend to get worse over time. If you have a termite program, the longer you want to fumigate, the more damage those pests will do.

If you decide to sell a home that’s in need of a repair, you’ll get less from the buyer, who will factor in the cost of correcting delayed maintenance. You’re better off taking care of your home as problems arise. In addition to having a more pleasant place to live in, your home will have a higher value when you sell it.
