Hi ,

Fall is here! — crisp air, golden leaves, and cozy nights by the fire. But before you settle in, it’s important to make sure your home is ready for the season ahead.

If you’re a homeowner or an investor, here’s your essential fall checklist:

Inspect your heating system — Schedule a quick check-up to stay warm and save energy.

Clean the gutters — Prevent clogs and water damage before the heavy leaves pile up.

Seal windows and doors — Keep the cold air out and the warmth in.

Inspect the roof — Fixing small issues now can prevent costly winter leaks.

Prep your yard — Trim, rake, and tidy up for a fresh fall look.

Safety Check - Test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, replace batteries, and review your home safety plan.

If you’re a tenant, here’s your essential fall checklist:

Replace Air Filters — Keep your air clean and heating system efficient.

Check Windows & Doors — Report drafts or broken seals to your landlord promptly.

Keep Gutters & Outdoor Areas Clear — If responsible per lease, remove leaves and debris near your unit.

Test Smoke & CO Alarms — Notify management immediately if alarms aren’t working.

Prevent Plumbing Issues — Keep heat above 55°F and open cabinet doors during cold nights to prevent frozen pipes.

Prepare for Colder Weather — Store summer items, check space heaters for safety, and stock essentials.

With builders offering year-end incentives and interest rates lower than earlier this year, now is also a great time to invest in a rental property and start building passive income before 2026.
