What a fantastic book! I bought this as a gift for …
What a fantastic book! I bought this as a gift for my niece and her husband who have just bought their first home. There are 283 pages to keep track of all repairs, upgrades and home improvemnets made to your home. Also the author explains how to draw up the floorplan on grid paper for permanent fixtures and helps with furniture arrangement. This preparation would take sometime and effort but is well worth it. Every room must be measured and plotted. Once that is complete, furniture must be measured to see if it will fit in a particular area. Capacity is up to 4 bedrooms, family room, dining room, 2 master bathrooms, flex room, foyer, laundry room, mudroom, 2 hallways, staircase, and basement. There is a section for around the house, front and back. The last section is for a general maintaince schedule. Journaling include when you move in and replacement. Over the years of living in a home, we don’t realize everything we do. This book has places to document serial numbers, manufacturer, model, year purchased, etc. If anything was ever stolen or God forbid there was a fire, this would be the first book I would grab. All your home possessions would be documented!

I got this book for my boyfriend and he freaking loves it!!! Although, he does wish I would have got it for him sooner as it’s been a while since we remodeled our house, he hsa really enjoyed the ability to record repairs and upgrades at our house. It’s a good way to backtrack past renovations so that in the future we know what we did and when we did it. I love how simple and uncomplicated the new home journal is, it’s so freaking easy to keep track in these things, you literally just need to write down the basics. I love how it prompts you to include things like manufacturer type/model/warranty etc etc. I find the prompts of these things extremely important. These are usually the first questions companies ask if there’s an issue but the ones us regular folks tend to forget first, at laest with us anyway. The only thing I would want to amend is that I wish there was a section to include receipts, purchases or anything else that may be needed at a later date. I think if this journal was put into more of a folder with an opportunity to include necessary paper work this book would be PERFECT. It is a great journal though and I highly recommend it to any homeowner. I really think all realtors or developers should have this in order to give to new homeowners.

Fantastic for Homeowners
I have purchased this book 3 times now because it’s so useful. I got it for my sister when she bought her first home and when she sold it she left the book for the next homeowner and they were so appreciative of everything written down. I got one when I bought my first home and I just purchased again for my brother who is getting his first home.

A Must Have for Homeowners
Every now and then you come across a book and can’t imagine how it wasn’t written before – New Home Journal is that book. For anyone who has purchased a new home, you quickly find out the home is about new appliances, stuff to fix, stuff to maintain, and stuff to keep track of. You do the best you can – place warranties in a drawer, cards from the repairmen, bills from the repairmen, notes that say, “do this yearly,” and soon the drawer is full. This method works until something breaks. What is the model and dimensions of the dishwasher? Where did we purchase the blinds? New Home Journal keeps all of that information in one place and the book is designed to be written in- you take ownership immediately by writing your name and address on the cover, and then keep track of all house details in one place. We all need this book, no matter if your home is new or established.

Great For New HomeOwners!
This book is the perfect gift for a new homeowner or someone who is about to move to a new place. Owning a home can be pretty overwhelming but this book offers simple layouts and design techniques that anyone can learn. It also supplies you with color matching information and great ways to prevent common future home problems. The book goes into great details and has clear examples for pretty much every room of the house. This is definitely worth a read, especially if you’re not “handy” and want to avoid unnecessary bills on repairs and decorators in the future.

Extremely practical gift for a new homeowner
So, I live in an apartment, but I recently purchased this and a bottle of wine for a friend who just bought their first home. I think they were a little skeptical at first, but at lunch today they thanked me profusely for the book. Essentially, it’s a master guide to store all the information about your new home–makes and models of the appliances and countertops and rugs, etc that you have. In addition, it’s a place to record the new home improvements you make. Obviously they haven’t used that portion yet, but they mentioned they’re looking forward to using it in the future. My particular favorite part of this book is the section where you can cut out the shapes of your furniture and rearrange it. All in all, it’s a really thoughtful gift– even if it’s not as sexy looking as a more typical gift.

Lovely book to keep a record of work, furniture and decor in your house. I bought one for my recent move and loved it so much I bought one for a friend for her new house. Worth noting that it is American and has some rooms that don’t apply but that doesn’t take anything away from this book – there’s just some sections you dont use.
