Frequently Asked Questions

Most calendars are blank—they rely on you knowing what to do and when to do it. My Home Exec is different because it comes pre-loaded with the expertise of a home builder. We don't just remind you to 'Check your Water Heater,' we tell you exactly how to do it, what tools you need, and why it matters. It’s not just a schedule; it’s a manual for your specific home.

You are in control. You don't need to sift through advice that doesn't apply to you. Simply browse our component library and select the features your home has (for example, 'Septic System,' 'Vinyl Siding,' or 'Gas Water Heater'). Once selected, we provide you with the specific 'Exec Method' for that component—including how it works, what is normal, and exactly how to maintain it.

Yes. Think of My Home Exec as a 'Carfax report' for your house. Instead of stuffing receipts in a junk drawer or trying to remember when you last drained the water heater, you log it all here. You can upload warranty documents, store receipts for major repairs (like a new garage door), and track the exact dates you completed maintenance. It builds a permanent history of care that proves the value of your home.

Buyers are often afraid of hidden problems. By presenting a complete My Home Exec history, you eliminate that fear. You aren't just selling a house; you are selling a 'Certified Pre-Owned' home. Showing proof of regular maintenance—like annual HVAC servicing, termite inspections, and water heater flushes—can increase buyer confidence, speed up the sale, and justify a higher asking price

No, because a home is more than just walls and plumbing—it’s where life happens. We are designed to help you manage the entire household. In addition to maintenance tools, members get access to our Busy Family Menu planner, a curated collection of tested recipes to solve the nightly 'What's for dinner?' struggle, and our monthly newsletter packed with tips on organization, home management, and seasonal prep.

Because this isn't just theory—it's 20+ years of field experience. The expert behind My Home Exec has spent over two decades working in New Home Construction, specializing in Quality Control and Warranty Management for three of major home builders.

"I haven't just built homes; I’ve managed the problems that happen after the homeowners move in. I’ve walked thousands of houses and handled thousands of warranty claims. I know exactly what breaks, why it breaks, and most importantly, how to prevent it. I built this site to give you the insider knowledge that most homeowners never know.

Yes! In fact, you are exactly who we built this for. Being a 'Home Exec' isn't about doing everything yourself; it's about being a smart manager of your biggest asset.

"For simple tasks, we give you step-by-step instructions. But for dangerous or complex tasks (like garage door springs), we explicitly tell you to Call a Pro. The real value is that when you do hire a contractor, you will know exactly what to ask and what they should be doing. We turn you from a 'helpless homeowner' into a 'knowledgeable client' so you never get taken advantage of.
