As we flip our calendars to January, many of us take stock of our lives and commit to new goals. While health and fitness resolutions often take center stage, the New Year is also the perfect time to focus on something closer to home—your actual home! 

With the right resolutions, you can save money, protect your property, and enjoy peace of mind all year long.

Here are five practical New Year’s resolutions for homeowners, along with how America’s Preferred Home Warranty (APHW) can help you achieve them.

1. Why You Should Prioritize Home Maintenance

Regular home maintenance can prevent costly repairs down the line. Start by creating a checklist for tasks, such as changing air filters, cleaning gutters, and inspecting your HVAC system. 

Staying on top of these small but crucial chores can extend the life of your appliances and systems.

2. How to Reduce Energy Usage

Lowering your energy consumption benefits both your wallet and the planet. Upgrade to energy-efficient light bulbs, seal drafty windows and doors, and invest in a programmable thermostat to cut down on heating and cooling costs.

Did You Know? Appliances working harder than necessary often fail sooner. A simple check-up can go a long way in extending the life of your appliances and home systems.

3. Create a Budget for Home Repairs

Every homeowner faces repairs—it’s just part of the deal. Setting aside a portion of your budget for these inevitable expenses can help you avoid financial stress. But what if you could eliminate many of these surprise costs?

Solution: An APHW warranty takes the guesswork out of budgeting for home repairs. With coverage for major appliances and systems, you could have fewer financial surprises and a little bit more predictability.

3. Why You Should Declutter and Organize

A clean, organized home isn’t just visually pleasing—it also promotes mental well-being. Dedicate time each month to decluttering a room or storage area. 

You might even discover items you can sell or donate, creating extra space and giving back to your community.

4. Be Proactive About Home Protection

Life is unpredictable, but being prepared can make all the difference. Whether it’s storm-proofing your windows or upgrading your security system, now is the time to ensure your home is as safe as possible.
