Closing day feels like the finish line. You sign the last page, get the keys, and the transaction is done. But for a homeowner, closing is really the starting point. The first year in a home brings warranty deadlines, small repairs, appliance manuals, paint colors you will need again, and a stack of paperwork that tends to end up in a drawer or scattered across an inbox.

That is why Olivia Pelton, Associate Broker with Presidio Real Estate, now gives every client My Home Booklet, a private home records and warranty app, free as a thank-you. It goes to buyers and sellers she works with going forward, and to her past clients as well.

What Happens After Closing

After working with buyers and sellers across the Wasatch Front since 2017, Olivia has seen the same problems come up after closing again and again:

  • Warranty deadlines pass quietly. Builder warranties and home warranty plans have time limits, and most homeowners do not know the exact date coverage ends until it already has.
  • Issues lack proof of when they started. A crack in the concrete or a garage door seal that will not close is easier to get fixed under warranty when you have a dated photo from the day you first noticed it.
  • The new construction walkthrough gets missed. Many builders offer a walkthrough near the end of the first year. Buyers who arrive with a complete list get far more fixed than buyers who try to remember everything that morning.
  • Home facts disappear. Where is the water shutoff? What size furnace filter does the house take? Which paint color was used in the living room? These answers matter most when something goes wrong.

None of these are dramatic problems. They are ordinary ones that cost homeowners time and money, and they are exactly what a good agent should help with after closing day.

What My Home Booklet Does

My Home Booklet works in your phone’s web browser, with no app store download and no password to remember. It keeps your home’s important details in one private place:

  • Warranty countdown: enter your closing date and warranty details, and the booklet shows how many days of coverage are left, with a reminder before it ends.
  • Dated issue photos: log anything that needs fixing with photos, then send a ready-made report to your builder, warranty company, insurance or HOA.
  • Home facts: water shutoff, furnace filter size, appliance details and paint colors, saved once with photos.
  • Upgrades log: a new roof, finished basement or new furnace, recorded with dates, costs, receipts and who did the work.
  • Seasonal reminders: furnace filters, sprinkler blowouts before a Utah freeze, smoke detector batteries — only the ones you want.
  • More than one property: a rental, a duplex, land or a second home, each with its own records.

It works for resale homes as well as new construction. Choose Resale during setup and add your home warranty plan if you received one at closing.

Private by Design

A home records app only helps if you trust it with your details. Your booklet is private to you. Olivia does not see your documents, nothing is shared unless you choose to send it, there are no ads, and your information is never sold. Sign-in uses an emailed link plus a six-digit code on each new device, and you can download everything or delete your account at any time.

Why It Matters for Sellers Too

For sellers, the upgrades log pays off later. When it is time to sell again, a record of what was replaced, when and by whom helps a buyer understand the home’s value. With one tap, you can send your records to Olivia so that history is ready for your listing.

For buyers, it means support from your agent does not end at recording. Whether you bought a new build in Saratoga Springs or Lehi, or a resale home in Orem or Draper, the details of your first year are kept in one place.

How to Get Your Booklet

  • Current and future clients: Olivia sets it up and emails you a personal invitation. Tap the link and add your home. Setup takes about two minutes.
  • Past clients: if you bought or sold with Olivia in an earlier year, you are included. Send her a note and she will send your invitation.
  • Everyone else: a free version is available at myhomebooklet.com, and the full version is $49 a year. Buying or selling with Olivia gets you the full version free.
