Book Description

December 15, 1998
If you own a home, condo, townhouse, rental or vacation home, then you will love this book. This time-saving organizer makes record keeping simple. As much journal and diary as it is organizer, it features entries and fill-in-the-blank space for all the notes you ought to keep about what you've done to your home, what you've bought, where everything is stored, what color paint you used, when repairs were done, and by whom, etc. This Organizer is the only one of its kind to be encased in a quality three-ring binder so that you can add your own pages, notes, warranties and receipts. Features a chapter for every room and each section of the house, inside and out. It even offers space to record the details of your swimming pool, deck and landscaping. Places for photographs, important personal papers, and paint and wallpaper samples.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Detailed enough to work for any home. Makes the perfect gift for housewarmings, good-will gestures, weekend visits with friends or relatives, Christmas, new employees moving into town, and friends moving out of town. The perfect place to record the details of your most important investment: your home, including what was done, how it was done, what was used, how much it cost, when it was done, and where it was from.

From the Author

Although I have owned three homes and 17 rental properties thus far in my life, I now own only one. Yet the details of one are as hard to remember as the details of when I owned five or more properties all at the same time! I finally got so tired of trying to remember what color I had painted a wall, where I bought wallpaper at such a good price, what size filter my air conditioner uses, and other fine details about my home, that I created this book for my own use. It proved so popular and valuable to friends and family, that I revised it to fit everyone's home and then had it published. I like being organized and this book helps me do just that. When I'm on my way to the home improvement center, there's no need to stop and take measurements or record data; I just grab my Organizer and go.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as others, June 21, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Home Improvement and Decorating Organizer (Ring-bound)
Unable to decide between this and a few books similar to it, I purchased them all so I could compare them side by side. I must agree with one of the other reviews that the pages are just photocopies that are spiral bound together...very cheaply made. And the information to record in this book isn't as nice as in others (2 for example sold here also...Our House Journal: The Story of Our Home, which is good for sentimental things like photos, and Welcome Home: A Home Improvement and Decorating Organizer, which handles the facts and sample information). I definately would not recommend this book to others.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very useful organizing tool!, March 27, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Home Improvement and Decorating Organizer (Ring-bound)
For the first time in years, I feel like my home is organized, thanks to this book. And it has already paid for itself three times because it saved me from buying the wrong paint color and furnace filter. When it came time to remember where I bought both, I looked in this book rather than rummaging through countless drawers and, in exasperation, running out and buying what I hoped was right. When my garbage disposal broke a few months after buying it, I told the plumber the make, model, and serial number over the phone, which saved on time he actually spent at my house. The binding is very useful because it let meadd a lot of my own pages with notes and photographs, etc.

5.0 out of 5 stars Handy and practical, May 18, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Home Improvement and Decorating Organizer (Ring-bound)
I'm glad a publisher finally had the foresight to put a book like this in a three-ring binder. It lays flat and pages can be added. Very practical. I give them out as housewarming gifts and wedding gifts. People love them.
