| January Home Maintenance Tasks for Lexington Homeowners |
Now that the holiday season is over, do you feel like you’re
quickly falling into a winter’s funk? As your Lexington real estate agent, I’m
here to offer you a list of homeowner maintenance tasks! As a
Lexington MA homeowner, you know there are always things that can be done around the
house. However, these particular tasks are best completed in the month of
January.
See how many of these you can check off your list this
month:
1. Organize seasonal storage and holiday décor. Before you
stuff your holiday décor away and then struggle with it next year, take this
opportunity to sort through it, take inventory, donate or trash what you no
longer care to keep, and organize and properly store what is left.
2. Give your kitchen a deep cleaning. If you hosted the
holidays at your Lexington MA home, your kitchen most likely took a beating.
Go through your pantry and refrigerator and remove expired leftovers and snack
foods. Then, give the kitchen a deep cleaning, including walls, kickboards,
everything.
3. Plan summertime projects now. If you want to add
landscaping, decks, patios, pools or any other outdoor projects to your
Lexington MA property come spring or summer, the time to hire contractors is
now. There schedules fill up quickly!
4. Clean all of your home’s filters. Aside from the obvious
HVAC filter, others that are smart to clean and/or replace this time of year as
needed are the filters in your fridge, vacuum cleaner, dryer, air filter,
humidifier or dehumidifier and other household items.
5. Shop for new linens and towels. They go on sale in January!
This is a tradition that dates way back and is still true today.
You know what else you can accomplish this month? Your
Lexington MA real estate market goals! If you want to buy and/or sell this
winter season, I am here to help. Contact me, your Lexington MA real estate agent, and let’s get going early this year on accomplishing your real estate
goals for 2018!
