The solution to the challenge of maintaining a house is to take a proactive holistic approach and includes three main functional components. They are: •Annual Home Reviews •Coordination of all Maintenance & Repair •Digital Maintenance Records The basic premise is to treat the home as an entire ecosystem. Be proactive and take a preventive rather than reactive approach to keep small problems from getting larger and more costly to repair. Even preventing some problems altogether and making a safe comfortable home for its residents. The key to this approach is to find the one person or firm that you really trust and allow them the responsibility to manage and coordinate the care for all your home's maintenance and repair needs; conduct annual home reviews; and document all work in an electronic format.
