If you currently own, or have ever owned a home for even a brief period of time, you're aware of one dynamic of home ownership ... home maintenance, repairs and improvement.  Properties and homes large and small at every point on the price scale requires one to periodically think about, plan and budget for such projects, improvements and the related costs from time to time.  And even brand new homes where you are the first owner/resident can vary widely in construction quality workmanship and raw materials used. 

All properties over time will have items you must attend to from time to time.  As such it is best to be as informed about and as prepared as possible about these various aspects of home ownership.  Each and every maintenance / repair / home improvement project, depending on whether being done proactively or reactively and depending on quality workmanship and materials can in turn affect the long-term cashflow and return on investment you receive from your home.
