5 Useful Items You Need in Your First Home

August 14, 2022

More first-time homebuyers than ever are moving into Frisco homes. If you’re one of them, check out this list of 5 commonly overlooked items that are necessary in your new home:

• Toolbox and basic tools. Now that you own your first home, you’ll likely want to hang pictures, put up shelves or build DIY projects. Having a selection of tools in a handy toolbox will make your work easier.
• Stepladder or stool. You’ll almost certainly need one at some point to reach light bulbs, stow things away on high shelves, or stock your upper kitchen cabinets.
• Fire safety items. From day one your home should have smoke and CO detectors, a fire extinguisher on every floor and in the garage, and at least one fire escape ladder on the upper floors.
• Outdoor trash cans. Buy good-quality lidded cans that will keep out critters and withstand being tossed around on trash day.
• Gardening tools. Even if your HOA includes yard maintenance, you may want to plant some flowers out front or have a garden in the back yard.

These items can help you have a smooth transition when you move into your new home in Lexington Frisco.
