I have the Title and the keys—Now what??
Once you’re in, you’ve still got some boxes to check. We’ll show you how and when to file for the Homestead Exemption (it’s not automatic), what to double-check in your homeowner’s policy, and whether flood insurance is a good idea (hint: usually, yes—even in X zones). We’ll also give you a “first 60 days” checklist to make settling in smoother.
