When spending large amounts of money, most people want to make sure that they know what they are getting into. So, when it comes to buying your first home, or any home for that matter, you want to make sure that it is going to stand the test of time. Whilst some people might have people helping them read through the fine print and check all the corners, many people don’t. That’s why we turned to the r/AskReddit thread about what homeowners wish they knew before buying their first house, so you don’t have to.

#1: 3-Prong Nightmare
There are so many things that many of us expect to just have in our homes when we first move in. Whether we are renting or buying, there are certain things that most people would agree are requirements for every home to have. Regardless of size or luxury, some things are just simply necessities.
And no offense to anybody that disagrees, but every room in the house should have at least 2 3-prong outlets. Any less, and you’re looking at constantly having to move things around just in order to get some electricity. We might even go as far as to say that every room needs a minimum of 3, but it depends on the size.
