So, you got hail. What now? You have the right to determine who works on your property's repairs, but it's important to choose a reputable and experienced contractor for the job; be cautious of those that appear at your doorstep following a storm. It is advised that you first conduct some research, read reviews, and get recommendations before selecting the contractor you believe best suits what you need. References can usually be obtained from your adjuster or agent. It is also important that they have the necessary certifications and are insured and bonded.

If one of the main reasons you're hesitant to buy a home is because you're worried about the upkeep, here's some information you may find interesting on both new home construction and existing homes (a home that's been lived in by a previous owner).

Newly Built Homes Need Less Upfront Maintenance

If you can afford it, you may find a newly built home could help ease your worries about maintenance costs. Think about it, if everything in the house is brand new, it won't have the wear and tear you may see in an existing home – and that means it's less likely to need repairs. As LendingTree says:

"Since the systems, appliances, roof and foundation are new, you're less likely to pay for major or minor repairs within the first few years of homeownership. That can make a big difference for first-time homebuyers who are adjusting to owning rather than renting."

Plus, many builders also have warranties on their homes that...
