From the beautiful, aspirational transformations as seen on HGTV shows to the nerve-wracking list of repairs frequently seen on inspection reports, don’t let your home’s maintenance intimidate you.

We have compiled a plethora of resources to help. Even if you’re looking to get started somewhere or just figuring out what to tackle next, here are some prompts and resources to start with:

  1. Connect with a professional through our Service Providers Directory.
  2. If you can’t find someone you trust, ask your REALTOR® for a recommendation!
  3. Planning something big? Double-check possible Zoning guidelines.
  4. You may qualify for a grant or other types of financial aid! We have a primer of programs here.
  5. How far out do you think you will sell? Some repairs may need to take precedence.
