How to Winterize Your NH Home for Cooler Months
As warm weather starts to give way to cooler autumn days, it's not too early to start preparing for the winter months ahead. Winterizing your home is an important part of your annual home maintenance routine, and it's the key to a safe and happy winter. Taking preventative steps now while the weather is nice can limit the risk of major home projects during the frigid months. Our real estate agents are here with some important winterization projects to add to your list this fall.
- Prepare Your Plumbing
When it comes to winterizing, preventing frozen or bursting pipes is a top priority. Now is the time to prepare any plumbing that is exposed to the elements and can potentially freeze. Drain any outdoor faucets, garden hoses, and in-ground sprinklers. If you have pipes that run along exterior facing walls, add extra insulation or heat tape to help keep them warm throughout the winter.

Preparing Your Home for Picture-Perfect Listing Photos
When listing your home for sale, first impressions are paramount, and nothing captures the essence of your property quite like professionally taken photographs. Our real estate agents at Badger Peabody & Smith Realty understand the power of these images and are here to help you make your home look its best.
- Focus on Key Areas
According to Joe Viger of Joe Viger Photography, a seasoned NH real estate photographer, the kitchen and living areas are where you should concentrate your efforts. These spaces are typically where most photos are taken due to their importance in a buyer's decision-making process. De-cluttering is crucial; removing just a few pieces of furniture can significantly open up the room, making it appear larger and more inviting. This is more effective than focusing solely on cleaning, as too much furniture or clutter can detract from the spaciousness and attractiveness of your home in photos.
